Frequently Asked Questions

What is internal infrastructure documentation?

Internal infrastructure documentation captures the technical details of an organization's IT environment - including app licensing, network architecture, server inventory, password handling procedures, login credential references, vendor contacts and configurations. It's a critical operational and security asset.

How should you document passwords and login credentials?

Never store passwords or credentials in plain text in shared documents. Use a dedicated password vault (1Password, LastPass, Bitwarden) and reference vault entries in documentation - never the credentials themselves. Document who has access, how access is granted and how credentials are rotated.

What should app licensing documentation include?

App licensing documentation should capture the application name, license type, number of seats, license owner, contract renewal date, vendor contact, cost center and any compliance considerations. It's both a financial and a compliance asset - and a key input to vendor management.

How do you secure infrastructure documentation?

Restrict access to a need-to-know basis. Use role-based permissions in your knowledge base. Reference passwords through a vault rather than embedding them. Audit access logs regularly. Encrypt sensitive sections. Have a clear policy on what can and cannot be documented in shared spaces.

How often should infrastructure documentation be updated?

Update documentation immediately after any system change, vendor change, license renewal or staffing change that affects access. Audit completeness at least quarterly. Outdated infrastructure docs are dangerous during incidents and audit failures - treat documentation as part of every change.
