Jul 1, 2025 By Akshay V In TrustCloud

Their CTO described it as “death by screenshot” – a desperate scramble to gather Slack threads, access logs, and onboarding spreadsheets just to satisfy the auditor’s checklist. They had the right policies. They had the right intentions. What they didn’t have was time.
