Talk:COBIT

message: Hi,
This is a question on how to document new versions of a "standard". Should a new article be created and the old article be renamed to "Cobit v3.0"?

thread_title:  New version of Cobit: 4.0 

message: Large chunks of this article seem to come from an old version of the ISACA COBIT website.  For example, Google searches for "while identifying COBIT's four domains" or "controlled through 34 high-level control objectives" restricted to the site "isaca.org" yield much of their surrounding text from this article.
Substantially more importantly, this article is laden with impenetrable jargon.  Just what is "IT governance"?  How about a "control objective"?      
This article should synthesize the cloud of COBIT buzzwords into a succinct whole instead of enumerating all 34 control objectives.

I agree.  Very large chunks seem to have been taken verbatim from  .  Some more senior Wikipedian, please speak up - is this enough to warrant flagging it with a copyvio tag? Gzabers 20:59, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Large chunks taken without attribution, difficult to understand

message: In this article it says COBIT defines 215 specific control objectives. However, in ITGovernance Institute's Cobit_regulations, it says there are 318 specific control objectives. It appears to me this article is the wrong one. Which one is right? If is the wiki, someone fix it. SSPecter talk ♠ 14:07, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  how many specific control objectives? 

message: As stated in the 4.1 version of COBIT Executive Summary (and the overall documentation as well), the formerly named 34 high-level control objetives are now called just high-level IT processes. Each one has its own set of Control Objetives. This was probably done for a better underestanding of what is a Control Objetive and what is an IT Process (which has its Control Objetives).
Since I am checking the sources for this text, adding citations and such, I am also correcting the references to Control Objetives. They must mow be called High-Level IT Processes as in the newest version of COBIT.
This is also why I mentioned in another section that there should be an article with the former version solely, for us to have an explict Wikipedia back reference.

thread_title:  High-level IT Processes vs High-level Control Objetives 

message: I am about to begin a translation of this article to Brazilian Portuguese. There's some text there already, built by someone else, but is some kind of a few cut, translate and paste. The whole contents are not there.
That's why am I specially interested in the accuracy of this original article.

thread_title:  Translation 

message: The information in this article is incorrect; companies DO NOT have a choice between COBIT and COSO, because COBIT is not a valid control framework in the same manner as COSO is. COBIT is merely a supplement to other frameworks for the sake of IT governance. The current choice available to companies is COSO vs CoCo vs Turnbull. The legislation leaves room for other frameworks to be written in the future, but COBIT is too specific to qualify. The second paragraph hints at this fact, but the first is incorrect.Dukeofwulf (talk) 17:41, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Cobit and Sarbanes Oxley

message: Originality of the content aside, my main beef with the article is that it sounds more like an advertising pitch than anything remotely resembling NPOV. The impression that was left in my mind was less "here's information about COBIT - benef11its, costs, alternatives, etc." than it was "hey, come by our Website and we'll tell you all about COBIT (and sell you some consulting services to go along with it.)"
