Speakers

On this episode of Masters of Data, we brought back GRC expert Cassandra Mooseburger to pull back the curtain on audits, and spoiler: it is far less scary than the IRS knocking on your door. We break down what actually separates a certification from an attestation from a report, how to run a prep process that does not send your engineering team running for the hills, and why the social capital you build across the business is just as important as the evidence you collect. If you have ever wondered how compliance work translates into closed deals and customer trust, this one connects those dots. This episode is essential listening for GRC and compliance professionals, security leaders, and cross-functional stakeholders in IT, engineering, and operations who want to understand why audit season exists and how to make it work for everyone.
