Selected Answer: C
Option A, "The board of directors reviews compliance with legal and regulatory requirements," is important, but legal compliance alone is not enough to demonstrate the overall effectiveness of IT governance. Compliance with legal requirements is a basic requirement, but it alone cannot evaluate the strategic value and accomplishments of the IT department. Therefore, the best indicator of IT governance maturity in a large organization is the board of directors reviewing strategic IT KPIs.

Option C stands out as the BEST demonstration of effective IT governance because strategic IT KPIs provide insights into the organization's IT performance, alignment with business objectives, and value delivery. When the board reviews and assesses strategic IT KPIs, it indicates a holistic understanding of IT's contribution to the organization's success and reflects the successful implementation of IT governance practices.
