What compliance mistakes should we avoid?
Don’t treat compliance as a one-time project. Avoid copy-paste templates you don’t follow and manual spreadsheets you can’t trust. Under-documentation, skipped training, and ignored vendor risk create incidents and takedowns. Fix with a clear owner, risk-based scope, usable SOPs, and automation.
