ITPEC IP October 2020 — Question 65 of 100

Directors are responsible for establishing and promoting IT governance as part of overall corporate governance. They set direction, ensure that IT supports business objectives, oversee risk and resource use, and require accountability for IT performance.

Answer (b)

Why not others:
- shareholders appoint or influence governance bodies but do not manage daily governance

- employees follow policies and perform assigned controls

- information-system personnel implement and operate IT but cannot alone govern it on behalf of the enterprise

Key rule: IT governance is a board and executive responsibility, although implementation involves managers and personnel throughout the organization.
