In this episode, Craig Unger, CEO and Founder at Hyperproof, explains why compliance should be treated as a continuous state, with every control tied back to the organization's overall risk profile. He also covers standardizing a single set of controls across frameworks and regions, expressing risk in financial terms for boards, and using a five-stage maturity model to plan next steps.

Service organizations hold most of their critical expertise in experienced technicians rather than manuals, and that knowledge is leaving as the workforce turns over. In this episode, Thomas Cottereau, CEO and Founder at SightCall, explores why the real challenge is capturing expertise rather than producing more documentation, and how AI can structure what experts already know into trusted knowledge. He outlines how to capture knowledge inside everyday service work, keep human experts reviewing what AI produces, and treat that knowledge as a continuous loop that feeds both technicians and existing AI systems.
