Audit of Provincial Library Information System based on COBIT 4.1

Abstract

Current technological developments cannot be damp again. Progress in every field cannot be separated from technology as its support, especially information technology. Likewise, the Bangka Belitung Islands Provincial Library and Archive has implemented an information system in managing book data, visitors, and the process of returning and borrowing books. However, a system is said to be good if it meets the needs and is able to solve problems. However, this must be balanced with an evaluation of the information system so that threats or losses can be avoided or prevented. This study purposes to determine the extent of the performance of the information system of the Provincial Bangka Belitung Islands Library and Archive based on the Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology Standards (COBIT 4.1). Since this system is already in the implementation stage, the audit process will use a subdomain of DS (Delivery and Support) domains, DS4 (Ensure Continuous Service), DS5 (Ensure System Security), DS10 (Manage Problems), DS11 (Manage Data) and DS12 (Manage the Physical Environment). The five subdomains were chosen because they had the greatest influence in the use of information systems in the Bangka Belitung Islands Provincial Library and Archive. From the results of audit analysis, it can be concluding that the quality of information systems services in the DPAD of Bangka Belitung Province is at maturity defined at level 3 which means the standard process in the development of a new product is documented. Besides, this process is based on the product development process that has been integrated.
