Answer: A
At the application processing level, the IS auditor should
review the interface between the EFT system and the
application system that processes the accounts from which
funds are transferred. Choice B is incorrect because an EFT
switch is the facility that provides the communication
linkage for all equipment in the network. Choices C and D
are procedures that would not help determine if the
customer's credit limit is verified before the funds are
transferred.
