Record the source location, examined part of credentials, readers, controllers, panels, door hardware, access decisions, monitoring, and life-safety interfaces, observed and expected states, owner, and reason for deviation.\nFor an approved change, define prerequisites, a limited test path, success and stop conditions, monitoring, and rollback. Check identity sources, DNS where used, time, networks, power, fire systems, monitoring, and authorized operators in design order. Protect credentials, keys, recovery material, personal data, and sensitive topology in evidence.\nVerification and evidence\nKeep the source locations 33 CFR 105.525(c)(4) (eCFR anchor p-105.525(c)(4)); 33 CFR 105.525(c)(1) (eCFR anchor p-105.525(c)(1)) adjacent to the sanitized artifacts used for comparison. Prefer approved configuration exports, access-event tests, controller state, door inspections, alarm handling, and exception records, with enough identity and timing data for an independent recheck.\nPreserve both successful and failed observations, along with approval and rollback evidence. Avoid uncontrolled production experiments. Assign an expiry or event-driven recheck so the conclusion is not treated as permanent.\nOfficial references\n\n33 CFR 105.525 — Maritime Security: Facilities — U.S. Coast Guard via eCFR",
