OPERATING PRINCIPLES
The discipline behind the outcomes.
01 Security is a business-survival responsibility, not a technical workstream.
02 Regulatory evidence must be designed into the operating model.
03 Platform reliability is an organizational capability, not only an infrastructure metric.
04 Team size is not a proxy for delivery quality.
05 Cloud, vendors and headcount are capital-allocation decisions.
