According to the material, how does COBIT (Control Objectives for Information and Related Technologies) relate to frameworks such as NIST CSF (National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework) and ISO/IEC 27001?
Answer
It can be integrated with them to draw on established security practices
Explanation
### Why this is right
The material says COBIT promotes integration with other frameworks, including NIST CSF and ISO/IEC 27001. Integration allows governance work to connect with related practices rather than treating each framework as an isolated system.
### The concept
A framework organizes outcomes, practices, or governance expectations. It is different from a specific technology and does not automatically certify an organization.
### The other options
- **B. It makes them unnecessary in every organization**: The material describes integration, not universal replacement.
- **C. It is a particular encryption technology used instead of them**: COBIT is a governance framework, not an encryption product.
- **D. It automatically certifies an organization against them**: Adoption alone does not establish compliance or certification.
