Aligning CobiT, ITIL and ISO 177799 for Business Benefit: Management Summary

• adoption,
• reliability

Overview The growing adoption of IT best practices has been driven by a requirement for the IT industry to better manage the quality and reliability of IT in business and respond to a growing number of regulatory and contractual requirements. There is a danger, however, that implementation of these potentially helpful best practices will be costly and unfocused if they are treated as purely technical guidance. To be most effective, best practices should be applied within the business context, focusing on where their use would provide the most benefit to the organisation. Top management, business management, auditors, compliance officers and IT managers should work together to make sure IT best practices lead to cost-effective and well-controlled IT delivery.
