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
- Scan coverage gaps for containerised and ephemeral workloads
- Threat intelligence consumed but not operationalised into detections
- High severity vulnerabilities exceed remediation SLA without risk acceptance
- Risk register entries lack named owner or due date
