As government organizations and government-contract jobs use more computer systems for their work, they expose themselves to higher risks of computer systems’ fraud.

Computer systems’ fraud can occur in the input, processing, or output function. In the input function, an employee entering master file information or updating data can enter false data. In the processing function, an employee with technical expertise could alter system software or delete important files. And in the output function, an employee could alter information in computer-generated reports.
