First move
Start with the 2 of 5 artefacts that already live in a system (Physical access / facilities); keep the periodic reviews but log each one as a dated record with a named reviewer.
Common gaps auditors find
- CCTV coverage gaps at loading docks and equipment delivery areas
- Tailgating observed without challenge during walkthroughs
- Visitor logs incomplete or escort sign offs missing
