 Other Principles of COBIT 5

 Principle 2

 Covering the enterprise from end to end

COBIT 5 addresses the governance and management of information and related technology from an enterprise wide end to end perspective

It covers all functions and processes. COBIT 5 doesn't focus only on IT Function but treats Information and related technologies as assets that need to be dealt with just like any other asset by everyone in the enterprise.



Principle 3

 Applying a single integrated framework

COBIT 5 aligns with latest relevant other standards and framework used by enterprises like
ISO 27001.

This allows the management to use COBIT 5 as the comprehensive governance and management framework integrator.

Principle 4

 Enabling a holistic view

COBIT Enables a holistic view by using 7 enablers of COBIT 5.
( word enabling here refers to enablers that we will discuss later)

Principle 5

 Separating Governance from Management

Governance is the responsibility of "BOD" under the leadership of chairperson. On the other hand, Management is the responsibility of "executive management" under the leadership of "CEO".

An organization can organize its processes as it sees fit, as long as, all necessary governance and management objectives are covered.
