First move
Mostly documents and reviews. Pull the 1 system-held artefact from your Endpoint management (MDM / EDR) 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
- Decommissioned drives stored unencrypted while awaiting destruction
- USB usage permitted without DLP inspection or encryption
- Destruction certificates lack serial numbers tying back to inventory
- Backup tapes shipped without tamper evident packaging
