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
- Flat networks expose sensitive workloads without segmentation
- Cryptographic keys stored alongside the data they protect
- Firewall rule base contains stale allow any entries
