Discussion: TYPES OF CONTROLS TO HELP MITIGATE FRAUD
Some of the "classic controls" that help to mitigate fraud play an important role in businesses large and small. These "classics" include segregation of duties, authorization controls, review controls (of journal entries, bank reconciliations, etc), safeguarding of assets (usually physical guards over inventory and cash), and change management (IT).
