Maintaining consistent configuration state and an auditable trail of ownership, versions and approvals is difficult across varied systems. Without lifecycle governance, changes can be undocumented, ownership unclear and version history fragmented, which makes audits and accountability harder.
Configuration Management assigns ownership, enforces versioning policy and records change approvals so configuration state and history can be verified. It produces audit evidence and approval records required for compliance while excluding implementation methods, operational monitoring, incident response and wider data governance.
