Today's private and public organizations are increasingly dependent on information technologies for achieving their strategic and operational objectives. IT-governance will help an organization to exploit the opportunities and manage the risks related to IT.
In this course, we introduce the student to the broad field of IT-governance and provide comprehensive coverage of IT management practices: strategic alignment, risk management, audit, compliance and security.
The main goal of this course is to provide students with the necessary skills to cope with IT-governance related problems from both a high-level theoretical and a low-level practical perspective.
The following topics are covered:
- Corporate Governance
- IT Governance
- COSO
- COBIT
- ITIL
- ITGCs
- Cyber Security
- Procure-to-Pay controls (in SAP)
- NIS2 and EU AI Act
