Implementation overview

The CobiT toolset includes a guide titled "Implementation Tool Set" to assist with the planning and roll-out of CobiT in an organisation. The CobiT Implementation documentation includes:

Executive Overview

Case Studies describing Cobit implementations
Frequently Asked Questions and answers
A slide presentation for promoting Cobit.

CobiT does not have a single entry point. Nor is CobiT applicable to a specific audience or technology. CobiT provides information on what is considered generally accepted practices for management and controlling Information and Information Technology resources. Any functional area can realise the benefits of CobiT. Management may be better able to balance the risks and control investments in an often unpredictable IT environment. Users of technology would have better assurance about the security and control of IT services through comparisons of their actual experience to the generally accepted standards detailed in the CobiT documentation. Those with the responsibility to monitor and review IT services can use CobiT as a basis for agreeing the standards and criteria on which to base a review and to report the findings arising out of this review.
