You must not have suffered a SOX audit before. Part of the audit is technical.

Also, the SEC greatly frowns upon lying about your business.


I have suffered every kind of audit, many times. I know of many technical facets of every business I worked for that would never have been a part of any of those audits.

Do you know of any published Amazon audits that describe in detail what specifically around Alexa is audited, if anything?
