Compliance theater has never stopped an attack

Certificate on the wall, but powerless when it matters? NIS2, ISO 27001 & BCM are not a box‑ticking exercise - they are a state of being: Continuous Compliance as lived decision‑making capability. Plain talk instead of theater

Session description

Speaker: Michael Thissen 

Certificate framed, binders full, audit passed - and in a real incident still no one knows who decides. That’s exactly what compliance theater is: expensive, documented, ineffective. NIS2, ISO 27001 and BCM are not a stack of projects to tick off, but a state of being: Continuous Compliance as lived decision‑making capability. Less paper, more clarity. Less hope, more decisiveness. Plain talk instead of a wall of certificates.
