The term IT Governance describes the effective governance and monitoring of IT processes in consideration of tactical and strategic business objectives.

The main focal point lies on the realization of a successful IT business alignment: business objectives have to be defined and they are the basis for the strategic direction of the IT departments. At the same time IT risks must be minimized.

This is easier to accomplish by taking use of well-established tools, frameworks or best-practice approaches, such as ITIL, MOF, COBIT or ISO 20000.

IT compliance is another challenge for many IT organizations. Every company has to abide by numerous laws and regulations, including IT departments.

Important regulations and laws:

• German Telecommunication Act
• BDSG (data protection law)
• GDPdU (guidelines for data use)
• Control and Transparency Regulations for Businesses

Furthermore, there are European regulations, e.g. Basel II and EuroSox, and international regulations (SOX).

These regulations affect the IT as follows:

• Control of all elements of IT infrastructure
• Secure and reliable IT processes
• Defined scopes of duties

Effective IT service management - e.g. based on ITIL - is the essential factor to ensure IT compliance. Our consultants will be happy to help you.
