First move
Start with the 1 of 3 artefacts that already live in a system (Cloud console / configuration management); keep the periodic reviews but log each one as a dated record with a named reviewer.
Common gaps auditors find
- supplier access granted at network level rather than to named resources
- enforcement never tested
