Bottom Line
  You may already be covering all 4 areas
  But you must be able to show
  How many systems you have
            • How do you know this list is complete
     What is their current status in all 4 areas
            • As well as history
  A good auditor will want process and
   documentation process is actually followed
  Added benefit:
  Being able to easily answer these questions
   means you have an efficient and well controlled
   endpoint environment
