Details
The system owner is responsible for the technical state, security, maintenance, and availability of the system and works with the process owner and the quality unit. Inspections cite no owner assigned, or the role delegated wholly to IT so that decisions on privileges, changes, backups, and periodic review sit outside the quality procedures. Look at the role description, the system inventory, and the approval records for privileges, changes, incidents, backups, and periodic review.
