# Audit Support

**Important**: This skill assists with SOX compliance workflows but does not provide audit or legal advice. All testing workpapers and assessments should be reviewed by qualified financial professionals. While "significance" and "materiality" are context-specific concepts that are ultimately assessed by auditors, this skill is intended to assist professionals in the creation and evaluation of effective internal controls and documentation for audits.

SOX 404 control testing methodology, sample selection approaches, testing documentation standards, control deficiency classification, and common control types.

2. **Risk assessment:** Evaluate the risk of material misstatement for each significant account
3. **Control identification:** Document the controls that address each risk
