COBIT 4.1 to ITIL V3 Mapping ISACA has published the COBIT 4.1 to ITIL V3 Mapping document (65 pp). ITIL V3 maps to 24 of COBIT's 34 processes and maps fully to 8 COBIT processes. As the report says and we agree: "When used together, COBIT and ITIL provide a top-to-bottom approach to IT Governance and thus to service management". The mapping report is available for free download to ISACA members from the ISACA website or can be purchased as an e-book by anyone from the ISACA bookstore.
IT Governance Global Status Report 2008 The IT Governance Institute (ITGI) has published (Feb 15) their third biennial report on IT Governance around the world. The report was derived from the views of 749 CEO/CIO-level executives in 23 countries. Their main concern was that their IT staff have inadequate skills and there are insufficient IT staff. We at Maat Consulting were pleased to see that awareness of COBIT has increased to 50% and use of COBIT has doubled to 16% in the two years since the last report.
