About this book

Understand ISO 38500: the standard for the corporate governance of IT

In the 21st century, IT governance has become a much-discussed topic among IT professionals. An IT governance framework serves to close the gap between the importance of IT and the understanding of IT, helping to improve your organisation's competitive position.

ISO/IEC 38500 is the international standard for the corporate governance of information and communication technology. The purpose of the standard is to create a framework to ensure that the board is appropriately involved, and it sets out guiding principles for governing bodies on how to ensure the effective, efficient and acceptable use of IT within their company.
