Publisher's Synopsis
Beginner's COBIT Companion provides a gentle introduction to COBIT 4.1, the IT Governance framework from ISACA; it contains a wealth of useful information for any reader new to the subject. The principle chapters are short, and to-the-point, providing just enough information to quickly give the reader an understanding of the fundamentals of COBIT 4.1; in fact, most readers should be pleasantly surprised at just how quickly they can get up-to-speed on COBIT 4.1 using this book. The appendices, which make up a large part of this book, contain the extra details that might be needed later, once the basics have been mastered, to progress to the next level. A revision guide for the COBIT 4.1 Foundation Examination has also been included, along with two, forty-question, mock exams. The inclusion of extensive extracts from the original COBIT 4.1 manual, licensed from ISACA/ITGI, ensures that the reader can start to familiarise themselves with the concepts, terminology, and phraseology found in the official COBIT 4.1 literature.
