COBIT 2019 Foundation — Question 28

When refining the scope of a new IT governance system during the design phase, which of the following is the MOST significant driver to be considered?

Answer options

• A. The size of the enterprise
• B. National or international locations
• C. Cloud versus on-premises services

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the governance system must accommodate varying regulations and compliance requirements that differ by location, which can significantly impact its effectiveness. Options A and C are important, but they do not have the same level of influence on governance as geographical considerations do.
