COBITWhat is COBIT?
Framework for the governance and management of enterprise information and technology, providing a comprehensive set of management objectives covering 40 processes across 5 domains.
Who it applies to
Enterprises governing IT at board level, and the auditors who assess them. Its concern is governance and value delivery rather than security controls, which is what separates it from most of this catalogue.
How the standard is organised
Governance and management objectives grouped into domains, with design factors used to tailor the model to a particular enterprise.
Framework names, marks and abbreviations (ISO, SOC 2, PCI DSS, TISAX, HIPAA, GDPR and others) are trademarks of their respective standards bodies and are used here only to describe what the Bitkosh Readiness Platform helps you track and prepare for. The badges shown are original Bitkosh artwork, not the official marks. Bitkosh Technologies is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by ISO, AICPA, the PCI Security Standards Council, ENX/VDA, or any other framework owner, and using this platform does not by itself confer or guarantee certification — certification/attestation is granted only by the relevant accredited third-party body.
COBIT on the Bitkosh platform
The 40 COBIT controls sit in one workspace with gap assessment, evidence collection and your readiness score, and shared controls count towards the equivalent requirement in the other 47 ready frameworks at the same time — so a second framework costs a fraction of the first.
