Chapter 9

Methodologies and Frameworks

This chapter introduces and summarizes major IT governance, IT management, and IT auditing methodologies and frameworks provided by leading organizations. The material in this chapter serves primarily as a point of reference to help readers understand the different approaches available to them, select appropriate methodologies on which to base their IT auditing activities, and align their own risk management, governance, and IT management processes to relevant IT auditing frameworks. The methodologies and frameworks described here do not all focus on auditing per se, but all offer processes, structures, and topic areas that some organizations may find useful when planning for and executing audits.
