Proper security diligence is crucial to avoid inheriting security vulnerabilities during an acquisition. We help acquiring companies go beyond basic documentation reviews, conducting comprehensive evaluations of the target company’s vulnerabilities and the potential risks of a cyber-attack.
For M&A transactions, it’s essential to understand the target company’s vulnerabilities and the potential impact of a security breach. Additionally, evaluating the effectiveness of the target’s cybersecurity controls is critical.
We help organizations assess the quality of the target’s cybersecurity defenses, identify risks, and evaluate its cybersecurity maturity. After the acquisition, we provide continuous assessments, security remediation, and monitoring services to refine the security program and support the seamless integration into your organization.
A comprehensive M&A cyber due diligence approach blends information discovery with focused interviews, an analysis of security technologies and capabilities, and technical security assessments supported by documentation reviews.
Our team evaluates the target company’s digital assets and network through:
Our experts collaborate with you to uncover the target company’s high-value digital assets and assess their significance to the target’s business operations.
Once high-priority assets and dependencies are identified, our team conducts a thorough assessment of the target company’s internal cybersecurity measures, past security incidents, compliance with regulatory standards, and risk management efforts concerning third-party relationships.
Once the assessment is complete, we will create a prioritized roadmap to address any identified gaps, streamline the merger and acquisition process, and ensure the successful integration of the target company’s assets and infrastructure with your own.
