The information asset inventory is current, that is, it is updated periodically and according to defined triggers, such as system changes
Context and Guidance: The inventory of information assets should be updated and maintained as assets change throughout their lifecycle to ensure the inventory is complete and accurate. Ensuring that the information asset inventory is current might involve change management procedures that require inventory updates any time assets are significantly altered. The organisation might also conduct inventory reviews, both periodically (such as quarterly or yearly) and based on events (such as changes in organisational structure, major changes in critical systems, and the acquisition and consolidation of another business).
