摘要:The twentieth century witnessed many spectacular developments that added great value to our societies. Information Technology (IT) was one development that is maintaining a major role in most - if not all - of today's organizations and having, accordingly, an obvious influence on business performance in general and on business management in particular. Such role of IT has brought the issue of IT governance (ITG) up to the surface to control IT resources, its sustainability, security, and availability as major requirements for business success. This paper examines the state of ITG in one of Egypt major public research institutions using the leading ITG framework – COBIT 5. Given the semi- autonomous nature of research units within the institution, the paper compares the level of ITG processes' maturity on the instructional level and on the level of a major research unit. Results reveal the relatively low level of achievement on almost all COBIT processes on the tow levels.
