1. 1. Introduction & COBIT 5 Drivers
Introduction The Basic Equation 1 A Framework definition: Framework Standard Framework Complete Solution Framework Ready-to-use Solution Framework Structures and components Framework Way of thinking Framework Basis that needs customisation
COBIT The Word 1 The very original acronym COBIT stood for Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology The control objectives are gone now well, at least the name has But Information and Related Technology stand! Information is a key resource for all enterprises Information is created, used, retained, disclosed and destroyed Technology plays a key role in these actions Technology is becoming pervasive in all aspects of business and personal life
COBIT Enterprise Context and Benefits 1 Today, enterprises and their executives have to: Maintain high-quality information Generate business value from IT-enabled investments Achieve operational excellence Maintain IT-related risk at an acceptable level Optimise the cost of IT services and technology Comply with ever-increasing relevant laws, regulations, contractual agreements and policies COBIT 5 provides the framework to fulfill these requirements
Drivers for COBIT 5: Changing World 1 The world has moved on since COBIT 4.1 and related ISACA Guidance were published: Importance of information Role of technology Technology landscape Views on governance and standards landscape Economic context Regulatory context Need for rationalisation of various ISACA guidance
Drivers for COBIT 5: Stakeholder Value 1 Delivering enterprise stakeholder value requires good governance and management of information and technology (IT) assets Enterprise boards, executives and management have to embrace IT like any other significant part of the business COBIT 5 provides the comprehensive framework for enterprises to: achieve their goals deliver value through effective governance and management of enterprise IT
The COBIT 5 Framework 1 Simply stated: COBIT 5 helps enterprises create optimal value from IT by maintaining a balance between realising benefits and optimising risk levels and resource use COBIT 5 enables information and related technology to be governed and managed in a holistic manner for the entire enterprise The COBIT 5 principles and enablers are generic and useful for enterprises of all sizes, whether commercial, not-for-profit or in the public sector

1. 2. COBIT 5 Framework (1) COBIT 5 Principles
The COBIT 5 Framework 2 The main, overarching COBIT 5 product Contains the executive summary and the full description of all of the COBIT 5 framework components: The COBIT 5 principles there are 5 of them! The seven COBIT 5 enablers An introduction to the implementation guidance (COBIT 5 Implementation) An introduction to the COBIT Assessment Programme (not specific to COBIT 5)
The COBIT 5 Principles 2
The COBIT 5 Principles 1. Meeting Stakeholder Needs 2 Enterprises exist to create value for their stakeholders. Therefore: Governance Objective = Value Creation Governance objectives driven by stakeholder needs Value is the interaction and combination of three components 18
The COBIT 5 Principles 1. Meeting Stakeholder Needs 2 Enterprises exist to create value for their stakeholders Therefore: Governance objectives need to be translated into manageable goals This is the COBIT 5 goals cascade This translates stakeholder needs into specific, actionable and customised goals
The COBIT 5 Principles 2. Covering the Enterprise End-to-End 2 COBIT 5: Integrates governance of enterprise IT into enterprise governance Covers all functions and processes within the enterprise Key components of a governance system: Governance Enablers the organisational resources for governance Governance Scope the entity to which governance is applied
The COBIT 5 Principles 2. Covering the Enterprise End-to-End 2 Third component: the governance roles, activities and relationships. defines who is involved in governance, how they are involved, what they do and how they interact, within the scope of any governance system
The COBIT 5 Principles 3. Integrated Framework 2 COBIT 5 aligns with the latest relevant other standards and frameworks: Enterprise: COSO, COSO ERM, ISO 9000, ISO 31000 IT-related: ISO 38500, ITIL, ISO27000 series, TOGAF, PMBOK/PRINCE2, CMMI, This allows COBIT 5 to be used as the overarching governance and management framework integrator COBIT 5 also integrates all major ISACA guidance: COBIT 4.1, Risk IT, Val IT, BMIS, ITAF One consistent knowledge-base to build the COBIT 5 Product Family on
The COBIT 5 Principles 3. Integrated Framework 2
The COBIT 5 Principles 4. Enabling a Holistic Approach 2 Enablers are factors that, individually and collectively, influence whether something will work Enablers are driven by the goals cascade The COBIT 5 framework describes seven categories of enablers
The COBIT 5 Principles 5. Separating Governance from Management 2 Governance: Governance ensures that enterprise objectives are achieved by evaluating stakeholder needs, conditions and options; setting direction through prioritisation and decision making; and monitoring performance, compliance and progress against agreed direction and objectives [EDM] Management: Management plans, builds, runs and monitors activities in alignment with the direction set by the governance body to achieve the enterprise objectives [PBRM]

1. 3. COBIT 5 Framework (2) COBIT 5 Enablers and the Enabler Model
The COBIT 5 Enablers 3
The COBIT 5 Enabler Model 3
The COBIT 5 Enabler Model 3 This generic enabler model is repeated for each of the seven enablers, adding more specific details, guidance and some simple examples
The COBIT 5 Enabler Model Performance Management 3
1. 4. COBIT 5 Framework (3) COBIT 5 Process Capability Model
The COBIT 5 Framework Process Capability Model 4 COBIT 5 is supported by a new process capability assessment approach based on ISO/IEC 15504: the COBIT Assessment Programme. The COBIT 4.1, Val IT and Risk IT CMM-based approaches are not considered compatible with the ISO/IEC 15504 approach as the methods use different attributes and measurement scales In Practice In general, ratings of a process will be lower with the new capability assessment approach (but are not comparable anyway) COBIT 5 does not include a specific maturity model per process
Recap of Process Evaluation Methods: COBIT 4.1 4
Recap of Process Evaluation Methods: Risk IT 4
The COBIT 5 Framework Process Capability Model 4
Recap of Process Evaluation Methods Rationale for change 4 The COBIT Assessment Programme approach is considered by ISACA to be more robust, reliable and repeatable as a process capability assessment method The COBIT Assessment Programme supports formal assessments by accredited assessors (assessor training is being developed) less rigorous self-assessments for internal gap analysis and process improvement planning The COBIT Assessment Programme, in the future, will also potentially enable an enterprise to obtain an independent and certified assessments aligned to the ISO standard
Recap of Process Evaluation Methods Rationale for change 4 COBIT4.1, Val IT and Risk IT users wishing to move to the new COBIT Assessment Programme approach: realign their previous ratings, adopt and learn the new method, and initiate a new set of assessments in order to gain the benefits of the new approach Information gathered from previous assessments may be reusable, but needed as there are significant differences in requirements COBIT 4.1, Val IT and Risk IT users wishing to continue with the CMM-based approach, either as an interim or on-going approach, can use the COBIT 5 guidance, but must use the COBIT4.1 generic attribute table without the high-level maturity models
Recap of Enabler Performance Management
Assessing Other Enablers 4 The ISO15504 based approach is a process assessment scheme The generic enabler performance model aligns quite well with the 15504 approach same basic questions asked So performance of other enablers can be assessed in a similar manner BUT: COBIT 5 as it stands does not elaborate this explicitly as it does for processes

Migrate to COBIT 5 or stay with COBIT 4? Some considerations... 8 COBIT 4.1 COBIT 5
Migrate to COBIT 5 or stay with COBIT 4? Some considerations 8 COBIT 5 because we have to do it COBIT 5 because we want to do it
Roadmap to COBIT 5 If you adopt COBIT 5: It s the enablers 8 Recap: it s the enablers that make governance work. So: roadmap to COBIT implies working on all these enablers: Defining and implementing processes Putting in place effective organisational structures Defining the right information streams Developing the right culture and associated behaviours Having the right skills, competences and (number of) people
COBIT 5 Implementation Roadmap 8
Roadmap to COBIT 5 Step 1: Why would we do it? 8 What are the drivers for a COBIT 5 implementation? Are there any existing pains? Lack of control? Growing number of loose ends? Uncertain ROI of investments? Any important trigger events Major new project? External pressure? Regulatory pressure? Questions: Are these issues real? If not, in theory no need to act urgently If real issues exist, is the Board convinced that something needs to be done here?
Roadmap to COBIT 5 Step 2: Where are we now? 8 Assess the Current Situation: Determine based on existing pains, the relevant areas for you in COBIT 5 Diagnosis/High-Level Review of selected governance enablers should be made, resulting in Capability score of processes Evaluations of other enablers
Roadmap to COBIT 5 Step 3: Where do we want to be? 8 Express target levels for capability of enablers This applies to processes, but also to other enablers Remember: Raising your level of governance capability: Requires resources, including time Has to be subject to a business case!
Success Factors 8 Some key success factors, without which failure is guaranteed Continuous top management support and committment Resources Regular success stories & quick wins Understanding key objectives (see next slide)

Additional Publications COBIT 5 for Information Security 9 This is an extended view of COBIT 5 It explains each component of COBIT 5 from an information security perspective It provides security professionals detailed guidance for using COBIT 5 as they establish, implement and maintain information security in the business policies, processes and structures of an enterprise
Additional Publications COBIT Assessment Programme 9 This enables the evaluation of selected IT processes a view on process capability Process improvement, delivering business value, measuring the achievement of business goals, benchmarking, consistent reporting, etc Processes can be assessed individually or alternatively in groups. Scoping areas include: Capability of processes to support cloud services Capability of processes to support achievement of IT and business goals Capability of processes to support SOX compliance Capability of processes to support the enterprise governance of IT
1. 10. Upcoming COBIT 5 Publications - COBIT 5 for Assurance - COBIT 5 for Risk
COBIT 5 for Assurance 10 This creates an information assurance view of COBIT 5 It provides guidance for ISACA s information assurance constituents It should be considered as the assurance equivalent of COBIT 5 for Information Security It is scheduled to be available in the second quarter of 2013 currently proposed to be launched at Insights 2013
COBIT 5 for Assurance 10 In COBIT 5, governance/management practices are the replacements for the COBIT 4.1 control objectives The Val IT and Risk IT practices In COBIT 5, the focus is on enabler goals Achievement of enabler goals can be assessed: Are goals achieved associated metrics at various levels in the cascade Is appropriate good practice applied (design question) Are process activities (which include control activities) adequately performed? Is the process capability level adequate or fit for purpose?
COBIT 5 for Risk 10 This creates an information risk view of COBIT 5 It will serve as the information risk specific guidance for ISACA s information risk constituents It should be considered as the risk focused equivalent of COBIT 5 for Information Security It is scheduled to be available in the second quarter of 2013 currently proposed to be launched at Insights 2013
1. 11. Some more migrating implementation considerations. How to put COBIT 5 to use in practice?
COBIT 5 Has Arrived Now What? Meeting Stakeholder Needs Are they? 11 Example Stakeholder question: How do I get value from IT? Do I get value from IT? COBIT 5: Value is the key driver for all enablers; COBIT 5 describes the organisational structures, processes, behaviours, information flows etc. that are needed to have IT deliver value to the enterprise; COBIT 5 also describes the mechanisms to analyse performance of all enablers, and includes a roadmap for a Governance improvement project COBIT 5 contains specific processes and other enablers for value management, e.g.. EDM02, APO05 and the linked organisational structures, information flows etc.
COBIT 5 Has Arrived Now What? Meeting Stakeholder Needs Are they? 11 Example Stakeholder question: How do I manage performance of IT? Am I running an efficient and resilient IT operation? How do I best build and structure my IT department? COBIT 5 defines a set of interacting enablers that when working and interacting well provide a performing IT for the enterprise; COBIT 5 includes a generic enabler model with a performance management module. Using this model to assess all enablers systematically will provide accurate and useful performance data; COBIT 5 contains metrics associated with goals at various levels these metrics can be included in a performance mgmnt system Dealing with the efficiency and resilience questions can be done by putting appropriate emphasis and priority on specific processes and other enablers
COBIT 5 Has Arrived Now What? Meeting Stakeholder Needs Are they? 11 Example Stakeholder question: How do I know if I m compliant with all applicable regulations? Am I? COBIT 5 includes a number of processes that specifically deal with compliance from identifying compliance requirements, over implementing appropriate controls to (independent) evaluation of compliance; the goals cascade include several compliance related goals at various levels COBIT 5 extends towards business processes, ensuring that compliance requirements are taken care of consistently throughout the enterprise The mechanisms to assess performance of these processes and other enablers can be used to manage performance of the compliance system
COBIT 5 Has Arrived Now What? Meeting Stakeholder Needs Are they? 11 Example Stakeholder question: Did I address all IT related risks? COBIT 5 includes several IT risk related goals at various levels, which when prioritised correctly will identify relevant processes and other enablers to manage risk Specific processes at governance and management level deal with risk management, e.g. EDM03, APO12, APO13, MEA domain Same for organisational structures, specific skills etc. Again, the built-in performance system allows to monitor performance and outcome of all enablers, providing an accurate view on current status In case improvements are needed, the Implementation Guide provides a roadmap towards enhanced governance practices
Finally one word on complexity 11 >32 definitions of complexity exist Is COBIT 5 complex? YES, because: It covers a complex matter and provides a model to deal with this complexity! Models are a simplification of reality to the level where the model still is relevant simplification but not simplistic! Is COBIT 5 complex? NO, because: If complex is defined as time needed to understand (for normal person) then we could argue that it is not very complex 5 principles, seven enablers with each four dimensions
Some final advice... 11 The Basic equation A Framework is a Framework COBIT 5 is comprehensive in its vision on governance BUT: a lot remains to be done by yourselves, based on individual circumstances We already posess the most important tool required for that shown at the right
