COBIT 2019 APO07.02: APO07.02 Identify key IT personnel

Key IT staff are identified, and dependence on one person to carry out any critical role is kept as low as possible by capturing and sharing knowledge, planning succession and providing backup staff. Guidelines require key people to take a minimum amount of leave each year as a security precaution; suitable steps are taken when people change jobs and above all when they leave; documentation, knowledge sharing, succession planning, backup, cross-training and job rotation cut the reliance on single individuals; and backup arrangements for staff are tested regularly.
