ISACA has released COBIT 5 for Information Security, which builds on the recently released COBIT 5 framework to provide practical guidance for those interested in security at all levels of an enterprise.
Niraj Kapasi, Past International Vice President, ISACA and Chairman, ISACA India Task Force, said, "Enterprises need to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of their information, while simultaneously providing availability to those who have business reasons to use it. Information and related technologies is increasingly core to the enterprise, but information security is core to stakeholder trust. Due to its open design, COBIT 5 helps to meet an enterprise's information security needs specific to business model, technology environment, industry, location and corporate culture."
Greg Grocholski, CISA, international president, ISACA and chief audit executive, Dow Chemical said, "The governance and management of information and technology is a large and complex topic. COBIT helps counter that complexity through relevant, effective and simple-to-use business guidance on specific areas within information systems. COBIT 5 for Information Security provides the security-specific perspective of this important business tool, and was designed in response to heavy demand for security guidance that integrates other major frameworks and standards."
