Current State Analysis
Network documentation is a detailed record of an organisation's IT infrastructure, including hardware, software, network topology, configurations, and security protocols. The "current state" refers to the most accurate, up-to-date version of this documentation, reflecting all recent changes and updates.​
Why a Current State Review is important
Keeping network documenation current is critical for operational efficiency, security and growth. Many organisations neglect to update their documentation regularly, leaving them vulnerable to inefficiencies, downtime, and security threats.
By maintaining accurate, up-to-date network documentation, businesses can ensure operational excellence, protect their assets, and adapt quickly to changes. Neglecting this critical task introduces risks that can be costly, disruptive, and damaging to long-term success.
