Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Your servers hum with midnight code
While regulators watch the road
GDPR knocks upon your door
SOC 2 audits want much more
A CTO without a plan
Is building castles made of sand

[Chorus]
Compliance keeps the wolves at bay
Controls and audits pave the way
Framework, policies, document trails
When governance succeeds or fails
C-O-N-T-R-O-L-S
Your company's shield from legal mess

[Verse 2]
Every button that users click
Every database transaction trick
Must follow rules written in stone
Or fines will shake you to the bone
HIPAA guards the patient files
PCI protects the payment tiles

[Chorus]
Compliance keeps the wolves at bay
Controls and audits pave the way
Framework, policies, document trails
When governance succeeds or fails
C-O-N-T-R-O-L-S
Your company's shield from legal mess

[Bridge]
Administrative safeguards stand
Physical locks protect the land
Technical measures encrypt the flow
Risk assessments help you know
Which vulnerabilities hide
Behind your application's pride

[Verse 3]
Penetration testers probe your walls
Access logs record who calls
Evidence collection never sleeps
Remediation plans run deep
Continuous monitoring eyes
Watch for threats that compromise

[Chorus]
Compliance keeps the wolves at bay
Controls and audits pave the way
Framework, policies, document trails
When governance succeeds or fails
C-O-N-T-R-O-L-S
Your company's shield from legal mess

[Outro]
Build compliance from the start
Make it beating business heart
Not a burden, but a friend
Protecting data till the end
