Information Technology supports and enables the achievement of its strategies and objectives. IT Governance recognizes that Information and Information Technology is at the heart of the modern economy - and at the heart of the modern business. It is a critical component of corporate governance and this pocket guide provides an introduction on how to approach this complex subject. This pocket guide describes the drivers for IT governance; why it matters; the relationship between IT governance, risk management, information risk, project governance and compliance risk; lists the symptoms of inadequate IT governance and the benefits that can be won by implementing an IT governance framework, and describes - in principle - how to go about doing this. This is a good overview of this important subject from the author of IT Governance: Guidelines for Directors.
