Lately I've been thinking about how security teams actually keep pentest knowledge from getting lost when senior people leave. A lot of the real context disappears with them - why something was prioritized, how edge cases were handled, what was just noise, and what patterns kept showing up across engagements.

I'm curious how people solve this in practice. Do you guys actually document that stuff in a way that's useful later, or does it end up buried in old notes and internal docs that nobody really uses? What actually survives team turnover in your experience? Looking more for real operator workflows than abstract knowledge-management advice.
