Hi guy,

You can find useful information at http://www.isecom.org/, they developed
some guidelines covering how to proceed a security audit ( including the
reporting part ) I hope it helps.
You can also take a look at an example report from core security (
http://www.core-sec.com/examples/core_example_1.pdf )
