What is IT Governance?
• IT Governance is the term that describe the governing and
managing of information technology within an organization.
• It is a framework that ensures your organisation's IT
infrastructure supports and enables the achievement of set
strategies and objectives.
• It differs from IT management in that IT governance is a
framework that ensures management is successful and risks
are identified and appropriately controlled.
• It links a organization’s objectives, goals and IT Management.

IT Governance has three main or primary objectives, which
can be achieved by implementing a structure responsible
for information, business processes, applications and
infrastructure. The use of information technology needs to:
• generate organization value;
• supervise management performance while ensuring
visibility; and
• alleviate the risk connected to information technology.
IT governance is the leverage of government resources
that support good governance.
