With the current emphasis on enterprise governance, successful organizations are integrating IT with business strategies to achieve their objectives, optimize information value, and capitalize on today’s technologies. To that end, Control Objectives for Information and related Technology (COBIT^®), the internationally recognized set of IT management best practices and control objectives, provides a powerful framework for IT governance, control and audit.

In this two day seminar you will review the new COBIT^®5 Framework and focus on how you can use this newly released globally-recognized framework for evaluating the effectiveness of IT controls.  You will explore the significant changes incorporated in the new COBIT^®5 that can be utilized in executing IT audits.  You will also discover how to use COBIT^®5 in conjunction with other internationally recognized standards and frameworks, including the ISO-27001, ISO-27002, ISO-27005 Security Standards and NIST 800-53 Recommended Security Controls for Federal Systems.

As examples during the seminar you will explore using COBIT^®5 to plan and execute audits for risk management, security management, business continuity and IT governance.  As a result of these exercises, you will fully understand how to use COBIT^®5 in conjunction with other internationally recognized standards to provide a comprehensive and effective audit approach.
