4. COBIT Structure (Vu)

CoBit - Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology

 From the highest level, COBIT creates a three-level structure comprised of
the following segments:

SOFTWARE PROCESS & QUALITY MANAGEMENT – Group Project 6

CoBit cube represents the relationship between components

 Business requirements:
- Effectiveness: Shows the relevance of information to business
operations, considering both time, accuracy and consistency.
- Efficiency: Shows the maximum use of IT resources.
- Confidentiality: Shows the level of confidentiality & reliability of
information, not being disclosed.
- Integrity: Shows the level of accuracy and completeness of
information as well as its validity with the proposed business.
- Availability: Shows the availability of information when required
from business activities.

CoBit - Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology

 - Compliance: Shows compliance with laws, regulations and binding
agreements.
- Reliability: concerns the management system with the provision of
appropriate information for its use in the system and the accuracy of
the information.
 IT resources:
- Application: Can be understood as the sum of manual and
programming procedures. Any business or organization must have
procedures or application programs to support operations.
- Information: Data, standardization, security. Information sources are
the input values for each activity, usually converted into data in the
information system. Information always requires accuracy and speed.
Good information management will create business advantages of that
business or organization.
- Infrastructure: Technology and equipment (i.e., hardware, operating
systems, database management systems, networks, multimedia. must
invest in infrastructure to upgrade IT tools and systems.
- People: Skill, awareness, and productivity staff to plan, organize,
acquire, deliver, support, monitor, and evaluate information systems
and services.
SOFTWARE PROCESS & QUALITY MANAGEMENT – Group Project 7
 IT processes:
- Domains: Natural grouping of processes, often matching an
organization domain of responsibility
- Processes: A series of joined activities with natural control breaks
- Activities: Actions needed to achieve a measurable result. Activities
have a life cycle, whereas tasks are discrete.

13. Disadvantages of COBIT (Tuan)

14. COBIT with other IT frameworks and processes (Vu)

Enterprise IT managers frequently deploy other IT-specific frameworks and

processes. COBIT’s concepts and structures play well with other popular
options, including:

 ITIL

 CMMI

SOFTWARE PROCESS & QUALITY MANAGEMENT – Group Project

 TOGAF 8

Uniquely, COBIT places more focus on what to do rather than how to do it,
often delegating how-to issues to other tools, frameworks, and
methodologies.
