Risk Management - Process
IT governance
The rules and decisions used to keep technology spending, priorities and risks aligned with business goals
What's it for?
Sets who can make important technology decisions and how priorities, spending and risks are controlled.
For example…
A monthly board reviews major tech spend, security exceptions, and which projects stay funded against business priorities
IT governance requires large technology investments to pass an architecture and security review before funding is approved
Think of it like…
Traffic laws: they slow some trips slightly but prevent gridlock and accidents at city scale
