The age of knowledge is solved through computer systems, virtual services and office potential, capable of improving in every way the daily, work, professional activities and subtly integrate them into society. Although these benefits have revolutionized education, medicine, science and engineering, they carry risks or adverse conditions that are eclipsed by their advantages. As a social responsibility of the accounting and auditing career, the management of computer risks in the IT department of the Technical University of Machala is analyzed, applying an explanatory methodology of analytical character to settle criteria when sequencing a procedure appropriate to the vulnerabilities detected in the study. The results give a qualitative assessment of the risks, analyzing their effects on the different dependencies of the institutional system; However, the biggest problem is the time that degrades all technological benefits without the human resources taking the appropriate measures.
