Controls and Methodology:

• Develop methodologies to identify conditions for using "pre-approved" service registry modules via pipelines.
• Define criteria for pre-approval and manual review processes, detailing the manual review procedure.

Procedure Development:

• Outline the pre-approval process, including pipeline and approval authority.
• Implement a "shift-left" strategy to proactively address IAM cloud operations staffing.
