This question's explanation and your answers so far.
解説
問 39
- ア
正解 The correct answer is “ア IT governance.” IT governance refers to the mechanism and capability by which a company or similar organization systematically governs (controls) the formulation and execution of its information systems strategy (IT strategy) for the purpose of enhancing competitiveness. Because the stem “governing the formulation and execution of an information systems strategy” matches this definition exactly, “ア” is the most appropriate.
Incorrectイ
Compliance means adhering to laws, internal rules, and ethics, and it deals with the lawfulness of a company’s operations as a whole. It does not carry the meaning of governing the formulation and execution of an information systems strategy, so it differs from what the question asks about.
Incorrectウ
A systems audit is an activity in which, from an independent standpoint, one inspects and evaluates whether an information system is properly built and operated, and offers advice. Its focus is on verifying existing systems; it is not a framework that formulates, executes, and governs the IT strategy itself.
Incorrectエ
Project management is a management technique for completing each individual project as planned with respect to its goals (quality, cost, and delivery deadline). It is not a higher-level concept that governs the formulation and execution of a company-wide information systems strategy.
ここがポイント
- Grasp the definition: IT governance = the mechanism and capability by which a company governs the formulation and execution of its information systems strategy in order to improve competitiveness.
- Be able to distinguish its role from compliance (lawful conduct), systems audit (inspection and evaluation), and project management (managing individual projects).
