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
- Policy boilerplate not tailored to context
- Standards drift from the parent policy
- Acknowledgement coverage gaps for contractors
- Exceptions granted with no expiry
