First move
This control is evidenced by people and documents, not systems. Put the document under version control with an owner and review date, and log each review as a record with reviewer and date. Do not try to automate it.
Common gaps auditors find
- Media transported by general courier with no chain of custody
- Unencrypted media relied on physical control alone
- No log of what media moved where
