    Standards: Committee for Sponsoring Organisations (COSO)

    To discharge its responsibilities and achieve its

    objectives, management must establish an adequate

    system of internal control. This control system or

    framework must be in place to support business

    requirements for effectiveness and efficiency of

    operations, reliability of information and compliance

    with laws and regulations.

    The Need Defined: Control and

    Governance Framework

    7 2013 Peter Davis+Associates

    COSO Framework

    Internal Environment: The control environment setsthe tone of an organization, influencing the controland risk consciousness of its people

    Objective Setting: Forms the risk appetite of anorganization

    Event Identification: Differentiates risks andopportunities and identifies events that affectmeeting objectives

    Risk Assessment: Every entity faces a variety ofrisks from external and internal sources that must beassessed both at the entity and the activity level

    Risk Response: Identifies and evaluates possibleresponses to risk: avoid, mitigate, transfer or acceptrisk.

    Control Activities: The policies and procedures thathelp ensure management directives are carried out

    Information and Communication: Pertinentinformation must be identified, captured andcommunicated in a form and timeframe thatsupports all other control components

    Monitoring: Internal control systems need to bemonitored a process that assesses the quality ofthe systems performance over time

    All components must be in place and working for internal control to be effective!!

    Why is IT Important?

    Gartner reports that 97% of materialweaknesses in internal controls can bemitigated through IT. Americancompanies predict spending $27.3billion on total compliance in 2006.Seventy-three percent of largeenterprises regularly experience

    application downtime due to applicationinfrastructure failure.IT Compliance Journal, Spring 2006

    23 2013 Peter Davis+Associates

    Why is IT Governance Important?

    Huge investments and large risksIncreasing dependence on information, systems and

    communicationsIncreasing pressure to leverage technology in business

    strategiesMarginal ROI/productivity gains on technology investments

    Dependence on entities beyond the direct control of theenterprise; e.g., extranets and outsourcingIncreasing impact of IT failures on reputation and enterprise

    valuePotential for technologies to dramatically change organizations

    and business practices, create new opportunities and reducecosts

    Why is IT Governance Important?

    Need to build and maintain knowledge essential to sustainand grow the businessGrowing complexity of IT environmentsFragmented IT infrastructuresDemand for technologists outstripping supplyCommunication gap between business and IT managersIT service levels that are disappointingIT costs perceived to be out of controlImpaired organizational flexibility and nimbleness to

    changeUser frustration leading to ad hoc solutionsIT managers operating like fire-fighters

    25 2013 Peter Davis+Associates

    Expectations:Deliver results in ever

    shortening timeframesDeliver more functionality for

    less cost (usually including less

    resources)Provide a better service

    while reducing operationalcosts

    Keep everything undercontrol in riskier environments24x7

    28 2013 Peter Davis+Associates

    IT Managements Challenge

    Reality: Executive Management dont always understand IT or its

    operation

    Us versus Them attitude has led to breakdowns in teamworkand communications

    IT find it difficult to prioritize - everyone wants Class Aservice

    Poor management reporting can hide good IT service

    Poor client facing functions (service desk, user support, projectmgt.) can ruin ITs reputation

    IT infrastructure has become chaotic and fragmented

    Little or no budgets for investment in underlying IT processesand resources

    29

    Typical Pain Points

    Failed IT initiatives

    Rising costs

    Perception of low business valuefor IT investments

    Significant incidents related to ITrisk (e.g. data loss)

    Service delivery problems

    Failure to meet regulatory orcontractual requirements

    Audit findings for poor ITperformance or low servicelevels

    Hidden and/or rogue IT spending

    Resource waste through duplicationor overlap in IT initiatives

    Insufficient IT resources

    IT staff burnout / dissatisfaction

    IT enabled changes frequently

    failing to meet business needs (latedeliveries or budget overruns)

    Multiple and complex IT assuranceefforts

    Board members or senior managersthat are reluctant to engage with IT

    Relevant Trigger Events

    Merger, acquisition or divestiture

    Shift in the market, economy orcompetitive position

    Change in business operatingmodel or sourcing arrangements

    New regulatory or compliancerequirements

    Significant technology change or

    paradigm shift

    An enterprise-wide governance focusor project

    A new CIO, CFO, COO or CEO

    External audit or consultantassessments

    A new business strategy or priority

    By using pain points or trigger events as

    the launching point for IT governance

    initiatives, the business case for GEIT

    improvement can be related to issuesbeing experienced, which will improve

    buy-in to the business case.

    Robert Roussey CPA, 2002/2003

    President ISACA & ITGI

    33 2013 Peter Davis+Associates

    Overall seek greater assurance on internal control

    Stress governance and the responsibility of directors regarding

    internal control

    Reluctantly accept pervasiveness and importance of IT; to be

    integrated in all standards

    Hesitantly go beyond financial risk, towards risks that adversely

    affect the entitys ability to achieve its objectives and execute its

    strategies

    Define expected audit steps

    Start setting requirements and expectations for SMEs

    Why Good Practices are Important!

    COBIT, ITIL, ISO 27001 and PRINCE2 are valuable to the ongoing growth

    and success of an organization because:

    Companies are demanding better returns from IT investments

    Best practices help meet regulatory requirements for IT controls

    Organizations face increasingly complex IT-related risks

    Organizations can optimize costs by standardizing controls

    Best practices help organizations assess how IT is performing

    Management of IT is critical to the success of enterprise strategy

    They help enable effective governance of IT activities

    A management framework helps staff understand what to do (policy, internal controlsand defined practices)

    They can provide efficiency gains, less reliance on experts, fewer errors, increased

    trust from business partners and respect from regulators

    Why Good Practices are Important!

    Need for internal controls typically requires that managementselect from a wide variety of well-established best practices

    Good practices can help avoid re-inventing the wheel,optimize the use of scarce IT resources and reduce theoccurrence of major IT risks, such as: Project failures

    Wasted investments

    Security breaches

    System crashes

    Failures by service providers to understand and meet customer

    requirements

    Summary

    To combat entropy, implement an IT

    Governance framework

    Standards overlap

    Use tools like the CCI (previously the UCP)

    Work on processes not solutions

    Develop an action plan
