Re-audit

A re-audit is a follow-up security review that verifies fixes and examines an agreed code delta after the original audit, using a newly stated scope.

also: fix review, remediation review, follow-up audit · reviewed July 22, 2026

An audit always takes place before a re-audit. In the re-audit, auditors check whether all addressed findings from the original audit have been resolved. If the code has changed, auditors go through the changes, analyze them, and audit them.
