Answer:
The active directory of a server is related to the control A.9 Access control so you will need to review the security policy of the AD, from, as you know, you can establish the complexity of the password, length, etc,

The backups are related to the control A.12.3.1 Information backup, and you can review the frequency of backups, planning of the backups and restores, etc.

The change management is related to the control A.12.1.2 Change management, and basically you can review the systematic for the changes (request for change, approbation of the change, etc.) related to the server (updates, patches, installation of new software, etc.)

It is also important that you perform an internal audit primarily against the requirements from your own documentation.
