  3. Identify, document, and classify findings, trends, or repeat observations, and escalate issues appropriately using established escalation paths
  4. Support validation of remediation actions through follow-up testing and confirmation reviews
  5. Prepare clear, accurate summaries of monitoring results to support team-level reporting and Advisory leadership visibility
