Objectives of IT Governance
The overall objectives of IT governance activities are to understand the issues and the strategic importance of IT, to ensure that the enterprise can sustain its operations and to ascertain that it can implement the strategies required to extend its activities into the future. IT governance practices aim at ensuring that expectations for IT are met, IT's performance is measured, its resources are managed and its risks are mitigated.
For a complete overview of the role of IT governance in an enterprise, the responsibilities of boards of directors and executive management for IT governance, and tools to begin implementing effective IT governance, see the IT Governance Institute's publication, Board Briefing on IT Governance, 2nd Edition.
