Getting up to speed with IT governance is like chasing bad cholesterol. Just when you think you have everything under control, you find you need to go further. The lesson that many companies are learning about IT governance is that it is a moving target.
As a CIO, you have digested Sarbanes-Oxley, UK's Turnbull Guidance-Data Protection Act, HIPAA, Canada's PIPEDA and similar legislation across Asia Pacific. You have spent countless hours making sense out of the array of standards out there including CoBiT, ISO17799, ITIL, CMM and OPM3. Perhaps you have adopted one or more to implement. Now you learn that there is something called the "Joint Framework" that is supposed to take the best of CoBiT, ISO17799 and ITIL and combine them into a comprehensive standard for global IT governance, and back to the drawing board you go. The only complication is that the new Joint Framework does not include CMM or OPM3 components, making it a tad shy of being comprehensive. It is therefore reasonable to assume that the Joint Framework is a work in progress and will undergo many changes and recalibrations over the coming years. The forward-looking CIO will not take an approach to compliance on a law-by-law, or department-by-department, basis. Please login/register to read the entire article.
