In an era of increasing regulatory scrutiny, digital transformation, and growing cybersecurity threats, IT governance has become more critical than ever. Organizations must have effective controls in place to manage risk, ensure compliance, and align IT strategy with business goals. But with so many IT control frameworks available, it can be overwhelming to determine which one is best suited for your organization's unique needs.
This webinar will demystify the landscape of IT control frameworks and help you make informed decisions. Through clear comparisons, expert insights, and practical guidance, we’ll explore the key elements of the most widely used frameworks and explain how they differ in scope, design, and application. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of each framework's strengths and limitations—and when it makes sense to apply one over another.
We begin by defining what an IT control framework is and why it's critical for establishing structure and accountability in IT operations. From there, we’ll dive into an in-depth comparison of several major frameworks, highlighting their objectives, focus areas, and use cases. Whether your organization is compliance-driven, risk-focused, or pursuing industry certification, this session will help clarify which frameworks align best with your goals.
Attendees will also learn about practical auditing approaches that can be applied regardless of which framework is selected. You’ll gain actionable tips for planning and executing audits that assess IT controls efficiently, while ensuring that your findings are aligned with both the framework and the organization’s risk profile.
