What is the difference between technology risk and IT consutling?

Chibby Z.

Technology Consultant - Financial Services

Our Technology Risk or IT Risk Assurance (ITRA) practice is largely centred on auditing our client systems and software rather than working on new innovations or transformation projects as you would get in technology consulting. The ITRA team is there to make sure our client systems are safe, secure and fit for purpose whereas technology consulting would have a wider remit and could involve anything from large scale implementations to providing support on remediation projects. So, it's more assurance than consulting (about 80/20 ratio).
