## 🤖 AI-Powered Assistance
This repository includes **AtomicAI**, your IT infrastructure QMS assistant. Mention `@atomicai` in any issue or pull request to:
- Draft change management and incident response procedures
- Create access control and user provisioning SOPs
- Generate backup and disaster recovery plans
- Develop security policies and procedures
- Create audit checklists and compliance documentation
- Review documents for ISO 27001/SOC 2 compliance
### Example Prompts
- "@atomicai create an SOP for change management with CAB approval workflow"
- "@atomicai draft a security incident response procedure"
- "@atomicai write a user access provisioning and deprovisioning SOP"
- "@atomicai create a disaster recovery plan template"
- "@atomicai develop a vulnerability management procedure"
- "@atomicai create a patch management SOP with testing requirements"
## Getting Started
1. **Establish Governance** - Define IT policies and approval authorities
2. **Implement Change Management** - Configure RFC and CAB processes
3. **Set Up Incident Response** - Create escalation procedures and playbooks
4. **Define Access Controls** - Establish user provisioning workflows
5. **Train Staff** - Security awareness and procedure training
## Key Documents to Create First
1. **Change Management SOP** - RFC, approval, and implementation workflow
2. **Incident Response Procedure** - Detection, containment, recovery, post-mortem
3. **Access Control Policy** - Least privilege, authentication, authorization
4. **Backup and Recovery SOP** - Backup schedules, retention, testing
5. **Vulnerability Management SOP** - Scanning, prioritization, remediation
6. **Patch Management SOP** - Testing, deployment, rollback procedures
7. **Business Continuity Plan** - DR procedures and RTO/RPO targets
## Special Considerations for IT Infrastructure
### Change Management
- Request for Change (RFC) documentation
- Change Advisory Board (CAB) process
- Risk assessment and testing requirements
- Rollback procedures
- Post-implementation review
### Security Operations
- Vulnerability scanning and assessment
- Penetration testing programs
- Security monitoring and SIEM
- Threat intelligence integration
- Incident detection and response
### Access Control
- Identity and access management
- Privileged access management
- Multi-factor authentication
- Access reviews and recertification
- Termination and offboarding
### Business Continuity
- Disaster recovery planning
- RTO/RPO definitions
- Backup verification and testing
- Failover procedures
- Communication plans
