COSO, COBIT and ITIL

COSO, COBIT, and ITIL are three widely used frameworks for IT governance and management.

COSO (Committee of Sponsoring Organizations) is a framework that provides guidance for internal control, risk management, and fraud prevention. It consists of five components: control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring.

COBIT (Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology) is a framework that provides best practices for IT governance and management. It covers 37 IT processes grouped into four domains: plan and organize, acquire and implement, deliver and support, and monitor and evaluate.

ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) is a framework that provides best practices for IT service management. It consists of five stages in the service lifecycle: service strategy, service design, service transition, service operation, and continual service improvement.

These frameworks are used by organizations to ensure effective IT governance, risk management, and control. By following these frameworks, organizations can align their IT with business goals, ensure compliance with regulations, and improve operational efficiency.
