𝐈𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞 ... 💭

You are the CEO of a company that designs and installs professional sound and lighting systems for music festivals and live events. Spring is when everything accelerates. Contracts are signed, crews are scheduled, equipment is tested. After months of preparation, the festival season is about to begin.

All is well ... until one morning, without warning, police officers and officials from a competition authority appear at your reception with a search warrant. They announce an unannounced inspection in a competition investigation. The questions come fast: can you explain how your IT environment works? Can you grant us access to it? Do employees use personal devices for work? Someone else mentions a legal hold. Panic creeps in as your mental checklist overloads. How does this work exactly, and what are you supposed to do now?
