1. Asset categories¶
| Category | Examples | Inventory source |
|---|---|---|
| Cloud resources | EC2, ECS, RDS, S3, Lambda, Cognito, ALB | AWS Config inventory, Terraform/CloudFormation state |
| Code | GitHub repositories | GitHub org listing |
| Workforce devices | Laptops, phones | MDM inventory |
| SaaS sub-processors | Stripe, Slack, PagerDuty, etc. | Vendor list (05-vendor-management.md) |
| Data assets | Postgres tables, S3 buckets, audit logs | Data classification inventory (07-data-classification.md) |
| Domains & DNS | telecomtowerpower.com.br + subdomains | Route 53 / registrar console |
| Certificates | ACM certs, code-signing | ACM console |
2. Inventory cadence¶
- Continuous: AWS Config records all configuration changes; AWS Resource Explorer provides cross-region search.
- Monthly: DevOps reconciles Terraform/CloudFormation state vs actual; drift triggers a follow-up PR.
- Annual: Full asset reconciliation including SaaS subscriptions, domains, certificates.
3. Ownership¶
Every asset has a named owner (in tags owner=<team-or-individual> for AWS, in CODEOWNERS for code, in vendor sheet for SaaS). Unowned assets are flagged at the monthly reconciliation and assigned within 5 business days.
4. Acceptable use¶
Assets may be used only for legitimate business purposes. See 01-information-security.md §3.4.
5. Org chart & SoD¶
Current organizational structure with separation-of-duties is maintained at evidence/governance/org-chart.pdf, refreshed at every hire or role change. Notable SoD boundaries:
- The engineer who writes a change cannot approve their own merge (GitHub branch protection).
- The deployer cannot approve their own emergency-change retrospective.
- The Security lead is independent from the Engineering lead.
6. Lifecycle¶
- Provisioning: Via IaC (preferred) or with documented justification in PR.
- Operating: Tagged with
owner,environment,data-classification,cost-center. - Decommissioning: All decommissioned resources go through a documented checklist (revoke IAM, delete S3 / EBS / RDS, update DNS, archive logs); evidence stored in
evidence/decommissions/.
