Cuplikan IT Assurance Guide dari ISACA/ITGI:

The objective of IT Assurance Guide is to provide guidance on how to use COBIT to support a variety of IT assurance activities. If the organisation is already using COBIT as a framework for IT governance, it will enable the leverage of COBIT when planning and performing assurance reviews, so that the business, IT and assurance professionals are aligned around a common framework and common objectives.

This guide is designed to enable efficient and effective development of IT assurance initiatives, providing guidance on planning, scoping and executing assurance reviews using a road map based on well-accepted assurance approaches. Guidance is also provided on how the COBIT resources can be used during these stages supported by detailed tests based on COBIT’s processes and control objectives. The guidance and suggested tests, like all the COBIT resources, are not intended to be prescriptive, but should be tailored to suit the specific assurance initiative.

This guide is aimed primarily at assurance professionals, but may be of interest to IT professionals and advisors.
