A Configuration Baseline Form establishes a standard or benchmark for the configuration of systems, software, hardware, or networks within an organization. It documents the approved settings and specifications that these assets must meet or exceed to ensure their proper function, security, and compatibility with other systems. It is a foundational tool in managing the lifecycle of IT assets. Use this form within your organization to supportsecurity, compliance, efficiency, and reliability objectives by providing a clear, documented standard for system configurations. As technologies and threats evolve, the form helps organizations adapt by serving as a living document that is periodically reviewed and updated to reflect the current operational and security environment.
