Infrastructure audit

[dosera]

An inspector will soon come to our company to check the financial and production infrastructure. We are preparing, as always, to meet him with good performance. But before this check, I wanted to independently conduct such an audit to identify weaknesses. Is it really possible to do it yourself or is it better to invite specialists?

If the company has weaknesses, then this can be seen even without various commissions or inspectors. I think the employees themselves know where it is subtle and every manager should know everything about what the problems are in the company and what are the successes. Of course, it is better to invite a specialist, because a new person sees more.

The audit is most often performed before any planned IT infrastructure change project and takes 2-3 days. Based on the results of the audit service, conclusions are drawn about what exactly the work on the project will need, what preparation is needed, how long it will take and how much it will cost. I recommend that you perform an audit of the infrastructure  https://itoutposts.com/infrastructure-audit/  before the appropriate check in order to first determine the shortcomings and eliminate them.

Why go far, because even your personal computer with installed software and an Internet connection can be called a simple infrastructure.

Specialists set up monitoring so that the system sends only the necessary notifications and only when necessary. That is, the situation in which thousands of meaningless notifications are generated is completely excluded.

The audit is able to reveal about 80% of the necessary information to understand the source of the problem. When covering all processes and configured health models, monitoring provides complete control and the ability to see the whole “picture” and plan changes further.
