Which principle is key for the governance and management of enterprise ?
A.Managing IT OperationsB.Ensure Resource Optimisation C.Enabling A Holistic ApproachD.Managing Information Correct Answer: C ExplanationExplanation/Reference: COBIT 5 is based on five key principles for governance and management of enterprise IT: Principle 1: Meeting Stakeholder Needs Enterprises exist to create value for their stakeholders bymaintaining abalance between the realisation of benefits and the optimisation of risk and use of resources. Principle 2: Covering the Enterprise End-to-end COBIT 5 integrates governance of enterprise IT intoenterprisegovernance: It covers all functions and processes within the enterprise; COBIT 5 does not focus only on the ITfunction, buttreats information and related technologies as assets that need to be dealt with just like any other asset byeveryone inthe enterprise. It considers all IT-related governance and management enablers to be enterprisewide and end-to-end,i.e., inclusiveof everything and everyoneinternal and externalthat is relevant to governance and management ofenterpriseinformation and related IT. Principle 3: Applying a Single, Integrated Framework There are many IT-related standards and goodpractices, eachproviding guidance on a subset of IT activities. COBIT 5 aligns with other relevant standards andframeworks at a highlevel, and thus can serve as the overarching framework for governance and management of enterprise IT. Principle 4: Enabling a Holistic Approach Efficient and effective governance and management ofenterprise ITrequire a holistic approach, taking into account several interacting components. COBIT 5 defines a set ofenablers tosupport the implementation of a comprehensive governance and management system for enterprise IT.Enablers arebroadly defined as anything that can help to achieve the objectives of the enterprise. The COBIT 5framework definesseven categories of enablers: Principles, Policies and Frameworks Processes Organisational Structures Culture, Ethics and Behaviour Information Services, Infrastructure and Applications People, Skills and Competencies Principle 5: Separating Governance From Management The COBIT 5 framework makes a cleardistinctionbetween governance and management. These two disciplines encompass different types of activities,require differentorganisational structures and serve different purposes. COBIT 5s view on this key distinction betweengovernance andmanagement is:
GovernanceGovernance ensures that stakeholder needs, conditions and options
are evaluated to determine balanced,agreed-on enterprise objectives to be achieved; setting direction through prioritisation and decision making;and monitoring performance and compliance against agreed-on direction and objectives.In most enterprises, overall governance is the responsibility of the board of directors under the leadership ofthechairperson. Specific governance responsibilities may be delegated to special organisational structures atanappropriate level, particularly in larger, complex enterprises. ManagementManagement plans, builds, runs and monitors activities in alignment with the direction set by thegovernancebody to achieve the enterprise objectives.In most enterprises, management is the responsibility of the executive management under the leadership ofthe chiefexecutive officer (CEO).Together, these five principles enable the enterprise to build an effective governance and managementframework thatoptimises information and technology investment and use for the benefit of stakeholders. QUESTION 2 What percentage represents F - full achievement of an attribute in an assessed process, defined by theCOBIT 5 assessment approach?A . 1 0 0 B . 8 5 % t o 1 0 0 % C . 7 5 % t o 1 0 0 % D.On average 85 % Correct Answer: B ExplanationExplanation/Reference:The Measurement Framework COBIT assessment process measures the extent to which a given process achieves the process attributes: N Not achieved 0 to 15% achievement - There is little or no evidence of achievement of thedefined attribute in the assessed process. P Partially achieved >15% to 50% achievement - There is evidence of an approach to andsome achievement of the defined attribute in the assessment approach. Some aspects ofachievement of the attribute may be unpredictable. L Largely achieved >50% to 85% achievement - There is evidence of a systematic approachto, and significant achievement of, the defined attribute in the assessed process. Some weaknessrelated to this attribute may exist in the assessed process. F Fully achieved >85% to 100% achievement - There is evidence of a complete andsystematic approach to and full achievement of the defined attribute in the assessed process. Nosignificant weakness related to this attribute exist in the assessed process.** Note to pass a process capability level, a process must achieve either an L Largely or F Fully.** Note also that to be able to move to another level of assessment any deficiencies that scored L Largely must be improved to an F Fully before an enterprise can move on.
