COBIT-5 practice question 14 of 25
Which attribute applies to a Process Activity?
Full set: 160 questionsIn the COBIT 5 Process Reference Model, processes are composed of practices, which are in turn composed of activities. For a process to be effective, roles and responsibilities for its execution must be clearly defined. This is typically done using a RACI (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed) chart at the process practice level. Since activities are the detailed actions that implement a practice, they inherently operate within this structure of clear roles and responsibilities.
A. This phrase describes the purpose of the overall process, not a single, more granular activity within it.
C. COBIT 5 is a non-prescriptive framework; it defines what should be done, not the specific, prescriptive steps on how to do it.
D. This is the definition of a management practice, which is a higher-level component in the process model than an activity.
