CoBiT 4.1

Control Objectives for Information and related Technology (CoBiT) 4.1 is Information Technology (IT) control framework. It can ensure that 1) IT is aligned with the business, 2) IT enables the business and maximizes benefits, 3) IT resources are used responsibley, and 4) IT risks are managed appropriately. A complementary download of Cobit 4.1 is available here and a complementary dowload of the Executive Summary of the Framework is available here. All ISACA members can download these documents by logging in at www.isaca.org. In future editions of the this eNewsletter in 2008, I'll be discussing CobiT in more detail.

Professional Associations
An important part of this newsletter is the identification of professional associations that provide training and seminars to information technology, governance, security, and other professionals in Puerto Rico.  We will publish all activities and seminars of these associations so that each professional can select which seminar or training to attend for their own professional growth, as well as, the accumulation of Continuing Professional Credits for their certification requirements.
