What is the Stop Rebuilding DevOps Controls That Break course about?

You've deployed control frameworks that work in early environments but collapse during audit cycles or production scaling. Each failure triggers rework: manual checks replace automation, exceptions pile up, and stakeholder trust erodes. The root cause isn't effort, it's that controls aren't designed for operational durability. Teams end up patching instead of progressing, and the cycle repeats every quarter. This isn't about compliance.
