First move
Start with the 2 of 5 artefacts that already live in a system (Identity provider / directory); keep the periodic reviews but log each one as a dated record with a named reviewer.
Common gaps auditors find
- Access reviews performed but exceptions never remediated
- Role definitions drift from documented matrix without change control
- Service accounts excluded from periodic recertification
