External factors such as industry outlooks and consumer sentiment can have substantial impact on an organization’s growth and strategy. Internal factors within the organization also arise, such as IT security, ethics, and financial compliance. These external and internal factors introduce risk to an organization’s ability to meet goals and objectives. Every organization must establish processes that ensure risk is managed. These policies are called ”internal controls.” Failing to mitigate these risk factors may result in regulatory issues, ethical misconduct, or security breaches—the consequences of which can be severe. Therefore, it is vital to establish a properly managed control environment to create assurance and confidence in the organization’s activities and outcomes. An effective way to achieve that goal is to use the COBIT 5 framework for governance of enterprise IT as an overarching framework for various standards, frameworks and best practices being used in that control environment. At the enterprise level, the separation of governance controls and internal controls in many organizations may lead to miscommunication, inefficiency, and an inability to effectively deliver value to stakeholders. Using the COBIT 5 governance framework for internal controls can streamline and eliminate these inefficiencies, by aligning controls with business objectives, and by creating a cohesive methodology across the governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) functions. This video explores this concept in detail. Learn more: http://bit.ly/2uTpS8s
