Control Objectives for Information and related Technology (COBIT) has gained worldwide recognition as a standard framework for IT governance, control, and audit.  COBIT provides IT management with a standard Maturity Model for measuring the performance of critical IT processes and controls.  COBIT also provides auditors with industry-recognized guidance for evaluating the effectiveness of controls over IT processes.  This session will provide an overview of the COBIT 4.0 framework (Domains, Control Objectives, Audit Guidelines, and Management Guidelines) and will provide guidance for integrating COBIT into existing IT governance and audit processes.  The session will also review effective methods for utilizing COBIT to implement process measurement reporting.  Attendees will be provided with templates and tools that can be used to integrate COBIT into their organizations.
The attendee will learn about:

  • Using COBIT as a tool to manage IT governance and risk
  • Integrating COBIT into the IT organization

  • Trending audit results through performance measurement and metric reporting
