What is the Scalable Data Risk Programs for Acquisitive course about?

Acquisitive organizations face mounting pressure to harmonize data governance, privacy, and compliance rapidly after each deal. Without a scalable program, teams fall into reactive mode, rebuilding controls from scratch, duplicating efforts, and delaying time-to-value. Fragmented approaches increase exposure and erode stakeholder trust.
