Avoid Damaging Your Reputation:
Know the Cyber Health of Your
M&A Target
In 2014 there were over 14,000 M&A transactions in North America valued at over $2250 Billion dollars. Wow! But, did you know that over 75% of these transactions didn’t earn the expected return on investment? Typical due diligence includes a review of financials, assets, contracts, staff, contingent liabilities and more.
Cybersecurity can no longer be an afterthought. Lowering your risk begins with asking the right questions:
-
Does the Target host software vulnerabilities which make penetration as easy as the Russian hack of the DNC?
-
What is the overall Cyber Health and Risk of the Target?
-
What is their CyberScore®?
-
What is the liability for the professionals conducting due diligence in the Digital Age, without these answers?
