Question

Entity types will generate from CMDB application classes, but Discovery and ownership data are known to be stale. What architectural dependency should be called out?

Accepted Answer

Poor CMDB quality yields wrong entities and therefore wrong controls and risks downstream. — Garbage in, entities out. If CMDB criticality and owners are fiction, IRM happily generates fiction-shaped controls and risks. Fix the source of truth before you industrialize generation.

Answer

Stale CMDB data is irrelevant because entities ignore source attributes after creation.

Answer

GRC content packs automatically repair all CMDB identification rules.

Answer

Only Audit Management reads CMDB; Risk and Compliance never depend on it.
