Key control 1546

[KASAL]

Hi,
If we follow all the key controls in Cobit (2nd edition), are we going to be compliant or we need to follow all the controls applying to our company?
Thank you for your help,
Kate

COBIT level 3 is the minimum acceptable level based on the thread below and version 4 is recommended

Thanks.
But do I need to be compliant on all controls or we can take just the Key Controls and be compliant with them.

Hi,
Sorry to chime in uninvited, but thought I’d provide a quick reply to the question…only key controls must be tested and tests of operating effectiveness must operate to make a positive assessment on the internal controls over financial reporting.
hope this helps,
Milan
