Infrastructure Audit Checklist

Before You Start

An infrastructure audit should not start with a tool list. It should start with business dependency, risk, ownership, and evidence.

Checklist

  • Critical business services and dependencies.
  • Network and firewall architecture.
  • Monitoring coverage and alert quality.
  • Incident history and recurring problems.
  • Asset ownership and lifecycle state.
  • Documentation accuracy.
  • Operational roles and escalation paths.
  • Security segmentation and access paths.
  • Roadmap constraints and budget reality.

The output should be a roadmap, not just a finding list.

LLD The low-level design explains implementation detail: configuration, steps, validation, rollback, monitoring, and handover. Good delivery needs both when the work is complex enough to affect production systems.
