First move
Mostly documents and reviews. Pull the 1 system-held artefact from your Identity provider / directory on a schedule; put the documents under version control with an owner and review date, and log each review as a dated record with a named reviewer.
Common gaps auditors find
- Default vendor credentials remain on appliances and IoT devices
- Password complexity enforced but reuse not blocked across systems
- Federation trust relationships not reviewed when partnerships change
