In this episode, Drew Danner uncomplicates GRC and stresses the importance of “keeping it stupid and simple.” Drawing from his experiences in both the army and cybersecurity, he shares easy and practical tips for building a sustainable security program.

Drew emphasizes the importance of doing the “little things” in GRC. He highlights how small, consistent actions—like reviewing contracts and integrating compliance into daily operations—can drive meaningful change and prevent last-minute crises.
