Before vs. after

Before
Cross-functional compliance delivery is slow, reactive, and dominated by rework, with security control intent often lost in translation.
After
Compliance operations run smoothly with aligned interpretation, reduced rework, and faster validation cycles, positioning the CISO as the integrator of trust.
