3. Information Technology Infrastructure Library http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1815 “ITIL is a set of best practices and guidelines that define an integrated, process-based approach for managing information technology services.”
4. Overview Of ITIL  Began as an effort to develop efficient and cost- effective use of IT resources.  ITIL outlines what processes to be implemented; but not how to implement it http://www.tso.co.uk/pism/app/content/pism_7.htm
5. The ITIL Framework
6. Overview Of ITIL  Service Delivery Management  Service Level Management  SLA – Service Level Agreement  OLA – Operational Level Agreement  Financial Management  Capacity Management  Infrastructure resources  Availability Management  Application resources  Service Continuity Management  Disaster recovery
7. Overview Of ITIL  Service Support Management  Configuration Management  Managing hardware, documentation, personnel etc.  Change Management  Managing changes to Configuration items  Release Management  Software and Hardware license control  Problem/Incident Management  Service Desk
8. Process Categorization In ITIL  In ITIL,IT processes are divided into 3 levels:  Strategic: Objectives and methods to achieve them are defined.  Tactical: Converting strategies into plans and setting target outcomes.  Operational: Executing tactical plans and achieving targets within specified time. Statergic (Policy) Tactical (Procedure) Operational (Execution)
9. Implementing ITIL  Some considerations for successful ITIL implementation include:  ITIL implementations need to be managed as a formal project.  It takes resources including time and money.  A strong Communication Plan will need to be executed.  It takes Management commitment and participation.  Certifications
10. BENEFITS OF ITIL  IT services become more customer- focused  The quality and cost of IT services are better managed  The IT organization develops a clearer structure and becomes more efficient  There is a uniform frame of reference for internal communication about IT

32. ITIL INFORMATION SECURITY
33. ITIL SECURITY MANAGEMENT  Security Management ITIL is a relatively new process  Key concept of Availability Management  The ITIL Security Management process describes the structured fitting of security in the management organization.  Based on the Code of practice for information security management also known as ISO/IEC 17799.  A basic concept of Security Management is the information security. Primary goal of information security is to guarantee safety of information.
34. ITIL INFORMATION SECURITY  Information security means protecting information and information systems from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction.  Information security, computer security and information assurance are frequently used interchangeably.  Information security is concerned with the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data
35. INFORMATION SECURITY BASIC PRINCIPLES  Confidentiality  Integrity  Availability  Authenticity  Non-repudiation  Risk management
36. INFORMATION SECURITY ITIL breaks Information security into:  Policies - overall objectives an organization is attempting to achieve  Processes - what has to happen to achieve the objectives  Procedures - who does what and when to achieve the objectives  Work instructions - instructions for taking specific actions
37. INFORMATION SECURITY Information Security Process is a seven step process: 1. Using risk analysis, IT customers identify their security requirements. 2. The IT department determines the feasibility of the requirements, compares them to the organization's baseline. 3. The customer and IT organization negotiate and define a service level agreement (SLA). 4. Operational level agreements (OLAs), which provide descriptions of services provided. 5. The SLA and OLAs are implemented and monitored. 6. Customers receive reports about the effectiveness and status of security services. 7. The SLA and OLAs are modified as necessary.
39. INFORMATION SECURITY o ITIL seeks to ensure that effective information security measures are taken at  strategic levels  tactical levels  operational levels o A complete cyclical process with continuous review and improvement
