First move
Start with the 5 of 15 artefacts that already live in a system (Endpoint management (MDM / EDR)); keep the periodic reviews but log each one as a dated record with a named reviewer.
Common gaps auditors find
- Missing MFA for remote access
- Outdated device security baselines
- Inconsistent logging of remote sessions
- Lack of formal remote work policy enforcement
