• COBIT provides good practices for the management of IT
processes in a manageable and logical structure, meeting
the multiple needs of enterprise management by bridging
the gaps between business risks, technical issues,
control needs and performance measurement
requirements.

The 4 COBIT Domains
1. Planning & Organization
2. Acquisition & Implementation
3. Delivery & Support
4. Monitoring & Evaluation
© 2018 CMU-ISR 10
Planning and Organization
• This domain covers strategy and tactics,
and concerns the identification of the way
IT can best contribute to the achievement
of the business objectives.
• Furthermore, the realization of the
strategic vision needs to be planned,
communicated and managed for different
perspectives.
• Finally, a proper organization as well as
technological infrastructure must be put in
place.
© 2018 CMU-ISR 11
Acquisition and Implementation
• To realize the IT strategy, IT solutions need
to be identified, developed or acquired, as
well as implemented and integrated into the
business process.
• In addition, changes in and maintenance of
existing systems are covered by this
domain to make sure that the life cycle is
continued for these systems.
© 2018 CMU-ISR 12
Delivery and Support
• This domain is concerned with the actual
delivery of required services, which range
from traditional operations over security and
continuity aspects to training.
• In order to deliver services, the necessary
support processes must be set up.
• This domain includes the actual processing
of data by application systems, often
classified under application controls.
© 2018 CMU-ISR 13
Monitoring & Evaluation
• All IT processes need to be regularly
assessed over time for their quality and
compliance with control requirements.
• This domain thus addresses management’s
oversight of the organization's control
process and independent assurance
provided by internal and external audit or
obtained from alternative sources.
• The assessment if the values are as
expected and meet with organizational
expectations.
© 2018 CMU-ISR 14
IT Governance is the Key Issue
• Enterprises are sacrificing
money, productivity and
competitive advantage by
not implementing effective
IT governance
• Executives need a better
way to:
- Direct IT for optimal
advantage
- Measure the value provided
by IT
- Manage IT-related risks
