Service Level Agreements (SLAs) have become an important aspect of every company today. This is so primarily from the fact that most companies use some form of the service provider in the course of their day-to-day operations. In order for this to happen, an agreement typically an SLA is created that describes the type of service that will be provided by the provider to the client/customer. More specifically, an SLA is a contract that formally defines the service being performed by the provider in addition to detailing various aspects like roles, responsibilities, quality, scope, payment terms, and processes.

Integrating COBIT with COSO and Other Frameworks
Internal Control Frameworks have been developed by a variety of governing entities to provide organizations with a tool to build a foundation and strengthen internal controls.
In this informative session, the speaker will introduce COBIT (Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology) which is an Information Technology (IT) Governance framework developed by ISACA (Information Systems Audit and Control Association). The underlying principle of COBIT is to assist organizations with establishing IT Governance starting with “tone at the top” and flowing downward into business units. Overall, this methodology is outlined by ISACA through the following phases: meeting stakeholder needs, end-to-end coverage within the enterprise, organizational customization, dynamic homeostasis, enabling a holistic approach, and separating governance from management.
