SCHAUMBURG, Ill.: #isaca--Enterprise use of AI systems for streamlining operations, improving decision making and enhancing customer and user experience has been booming. But with those benefits come challenges and risk, as well as the need for strong governance and management of AI. One way that organizations can manage AI system governance is by using ISACA’s COBIT framework. COBIT is the long-time gold standard for enterprise information and technology (I&T) governance, and it can bring a host of benefits.

Traditionally employed for I&T governance, COBIT is uniquely positioned to address the distinct challenges AI systems introduce, including issues related to ethics, accountability, transparency, and compliance. By using COBIT for AI system governance, organizations can realize six key benefits:

  • Aligning AI objectives directly to business goals: This alignment enables enterprises to achieve specific, quantifiable outcomes, such as increased operational efficiency, positive return on investment (ROI), enhanced decision making, or improved customer engagement.
  • Emphasizing accountability: Enterprises can ensure that each AI initiative has clear ownership and a roadmap for achieving defined business outcomes. Organizations are then better equipped to drive real, tangible benefits from their AI investments.
  • Providing a robust framework for identifying, assessing, and mitigating risk throughout the AI life cycle: COBIT’s mandated risk assessment focuses on performance and conformance monitoring evaluation and assessment, ensuring that any emerging risk is promptly identified and mitigated to minimize potential disruptions.
  • Managing AI systems resources: COBIT assists organizations in efficiently managing resources— such as high-quality data, skilled personnel, and a robust technology infrastructure—to avoid waste and maximize the ROI, while also helping them scale AI initiatives as the organization’s needs evolve.
  • Emphasizing continuous improvement: COBIT embeds ongoing monitoring and assessment practices to ensure that AI systems are continually evaluated against performance metrics, compliance standards, and evolving business requirements. This allows organizations to identify performance gaps, adapt to emerging trends, and integrate feedback into the AI system’s life cycle.
  • Encouraging a feedback loop and guiding documentation of improvements: COBIT’s continuous improvement cycle, which includes feedback from stakeholders from various departments, allows a holistic view of how AI systems impact the organization and ensures that AI systems remain relevant, effective, and aligned with an organization’s strategy over time. Documenting improvements fosters a culture of transparency and accountability that enhances trust in AI systems across all levels of the organization.
  • By implementing COBIT’s risk management guidelines, organizations can systematically address and reduce risk, ensuring that AI systems remain reliable, compliant, and ethically sound.

    In addition to COBIT, ISACA offers a range of other AI resources, including the Artificial Intelligence Audit Toolkit and several courses—including AI Fundamentals, AI Governance, and AI Threat Landscape. ISACA will also be introducing its new Advanced in AI Audit (AAIA) certification—a designation that can be earned by CISAs, CPAs and CIAs—this month, as well as the Advanced in AI Security Management (AAISM) certification, which can be earned by CISMs and CISSPs, in Q3.
