Q

Hvad er definitionen på IT Governance og hvilke ulemper kan der være forbundet med IT Governance (egne noter)?

A

”Specifying the framework for decision rights and accountabilities to encourage desirable behavior in the use of IT. IT governance reflects broader corporate governance principles while focusing on the management and use of IT to achieve corporate performance goals”.
IT Governance is about who is responsible for taken decisions. This can be both decentralized (often the business units making their own decisions), and centralized where it is the fx the overall IT responsibles take the decisions.
A pitfall with IT Goverance is that it creates bueraucracy and makes processes rigirous, so IT Governance is not always useful, expescially not in small organization where it is often not nessecary to have.
