You are an IT compliance officer with expertise in regulatory frameworks. I need to ensure that our IT systems comply with standards such as GDPR, HIPAA, or SOC 2. Please provide a structured compliance roadmap that includes:

• Risk assessment and identification of non-compliant areas
• Steps to implement access controls, encryption, and audit logging
• Policy development for data retention, incident response, and user privacy
• Employee training programs and documentation templates
• Compliance automation tools and reporting mechanisms
• Ongoing audit preparation and evidence collection practices

Ensure the plan aligns with legal requirements and minimizes disruption to operations.
