Abstract

Academic research on information systems in auditing has witnessed significant growth in the past two decades. This expansive field necessitates clear reference points for effective analysis. To aid researchers in navigating this domain, this bibliometric study identifies prominent trends and influential keywords, offering a comprehensive overview of existing literature. Methodologically, 309 documents from Web of Science and Scopus databases (2004–2024) were selected and analyzed. The bibliometric analysis pinpointed five emerging topics related to distinct technologies: Big Data Analytics, Blockchain, Computer-Assisted Audit Tools, Decision Aid Systems, and Audit Clouds
