ITIL and COBIT can enable organizations to achieve
key objectives:

Establish proven best practice IT service management processes
to manage IT from a business perspective and achieve business
goals, including that of compliance

Put in place clear process goals, based on the organization’s
business goals, and provide a means of measuring progress
against them

Ensure effective IT governance and control at the process level,
and enable IT to demonstrate that it meets or exceeds the
requirements set forth by government or external regulations
Frameworks are highly complementary, and together provide
greater value than using just one or the other. COBIT outlines what 4
you need to do to meet these challenges and ITIL shows you how to
get there.
Why is IT governance and best practices
implementation needed?
The effective management of information, information systems,
communication and IT services is of critical important and
survival of most enterprises. This criticality arises from:
-
The pervasiveness of and dependence on information, the
services and the infrastructure that deliver the information
-
The increasing scale and cost of current and future
technology- related investments
-
The potential for technologies to enable transformation of
enterprises and business practices
5
Some Facts:
- ITIL strong in IT HOW to carry on processes (delivery and
support) , but limited in security and system development

- COBIT is strong in IT controls and IT metrics, it concentrates
on WHAT should be achieved rather than how (e.g. process
flows) to achieve effective governance, management and
control.
– No contradictions or real overlaps, they complement
– No discussion on specific technologies or configuration
requirements (e.g. unlike PCI)

Originally released in 1996 by the Information Systems Audit and
Control Foundation (ISACF) (1st Edition)
Current primary publisher is the IT Governance Institute( ITGI) - formed
by the Information Systems Audit and Control Association (ISACA) in
1998 (2nd Edition)
By 2000, ISACF and ITGI became one entity, and the 3 rd Edition was
issued.
In 2005, 4th Edition was issued.
COBIT was formed through research of sources such as the technical
standards from ISO, codes of conduct issued by the Council of Europe
and ISACA, professional standards for internal control and auditing
issued by COSO, AICPA, GAO, etc.
The above sources were used to formulate COBIT to “be both
pragmatic and responsive to business needs while being
7
independent of the technical IT platforms adopted in an
organization.”

COBIT ON IT GOVERNANCE..

IT governance is the responsibility of executives and the
board of directors, and consists of the leadership,
organizational structures and processes that ensure that the
enterprise’s IT sustains and extends the organization's
strategies and objectives.

For IT to be successful in delivering against business
requirements, management should put an internal control
system or framework in place.

The business orientation of COBIT consists of linking
business goals to IT goals, providing metrics and maturity
models to measure their achievement, and identifying the
10
associated responsibilities of business and IT process
owners.

INTRODUCTION TO ITIL
During the late 1980’s the Central Computer and
Telecommunication Agency (CCTA) in the United
Kingdom started to work on what is now known as
ITIL, the Information Technology Infrastructure
Library

ITIL is a set of books that provides comprehensive
and interrelated codes of practice in achieving the
efficient support and delivery of high quality, cost
effective IT services

Version 2 available in 2000

Version 3 available in 2007

ITIL EDUCATION PATH

ITIL MYTH
As Jan Van Bon (author and editor of many IT Service Management
publications) notes:
There is a lot of confusion about ITIL, stemming from all kinds of
misunderstandings about its nature. ITIL is a set of best practices. The
there is no claim that ITIL’s best practices describe pure processes..
That is what most of its users make of it, probably because they have
such a great need for such a model
CIO Magazine columnist Dean Meyer has also presented some
cautionary views of ITIL, including five pitfalls such as "becoming a
slave to outdated definitions" and "Letting ITIL become religion." As he
notes, "...it doesn't describe the complete range of processes needed
to be world class. It's focused on ... managing ongoing services."
29
ITIL V.2 AND V.3
ITIL v2 , seven books with two main areas:
•Service Support
•Service Delivery
In ITIL v3 moves from a process approach to a service life cycle approach:
• Service strategy- which type of services, to which customers and
markets
• Service design- identifies service req’s, devices new service offerings
• Service transition- builds and deploys new or modified services
• Service operation- carries out operational tasks
• Continual service improvement- learns from the past, improve the
effectiveness and efficiencies of services and process
30
What is the difference between Version 2 and
Version 3?
V3
articulates the relationship between IT and the business far
more clearly than earlier versions of ITIL.
Instead of focusing on processes as in V2, V3 considers a wider
view of IT by considering the Lifecycle of a service from its initial
planning, which should be aligned to the business need, through to
its final retirement.

V3
focuses more on the treatment of strategic options, functions,
roles and responsibilities as well as continual improvement.
The
existing processes from earlier ITIL versions remain in V3 but
have been improved and added to. ITIL V3 also looks more closely 31
at alignment with other best practices and standards.

MATURITY MODELING
Maturity modeling for management and control over IT processes is
based on a method of self-evaluation by the organization.
In COBIT and ITIL a maturity model has been defined for each section,
providing an incremental measurement scale from 0, non-existent,
through 5, optimized.
Using the maturity models developed for each IT process, management
can identify:
• The actual performance of the enterprise—Where the enterprise is
today
• The current status of the industry— The comparison
• The enterprise’s target for improvement—Where the enterprise
wants to be
The maturity attributes list the characteristics of how IT processes are
managed and describes how they evolve from a non-existent to an
optimized process.
These attributes can be used for more comprehensive assessment,
gap analysis and improvement planning.
