Comparing COBIT 4.1 to COBIT 5 | Video

comparing-4-to-5

COBIT 5 consolidates RiskIT, ValIT, BMIS and COBIT 4.1 into a single business focused framework. This provides a more effective value creation mechanism to meet a wide variety of stakeholder needs.

COBIT 5 is an integrated framework that provides simplified integration with other frameworks such as ITIL, TOGAF, ISO 27000, ISO38500, ISO31000, COSO and methods such as PRINCE2, PMBoK etc.

COBIT 5 has introduced a number of content changes:

•  New 5 GEIT (governance of enterprise IT) principles

•  Increased focus on 7 enablers

•  New Process Reference Model, covering two areas, one each for governance and management)

•  New and modified processes, which includes restructuring the descriptions of the individual processes and describing activities within each practice

•  Practices and activities

•  Goals and metrics

•  Inputs and outputs

•  RACI charts

•  Process Capability Maturity Models and Assessments 

Significantly COBIT 5 clearly defines and separates governance from management.

Perhaps the most important change that COBIT 5 brings with it is the reorganization of the framework from an IT process model into an IT governance and management framework for enterprise IT.
