Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT) — Question 305

The BEST way to determine the effectiveness of an enterprise's IT governance framework is by assessing the:

Answer options

• A. value of IT contribution.
• B. maturity of IT processes.
• C. application of IT standards.
• D. compliance to IT policy.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Assessing the maturity of IT processes provides a comprehensive view of how well IT governance is functioning, as it reflects the effectiveness and reliability of the processes in place. While the other options, such as compliance and standards application, are important, they do not give as holistic a view of governance effectiveness as maturity assessments do.
