What makes our IT Security Due Diligence Service different?

Cybersecurity due diligence is a process that aims to identify and assess the cybersecurity risks associated with an M&A deal. It is typically conducted as part of the due diligence process, which is a thorough investigation of a company’s financial, legal, and operational capabilities and risks before an acquisition or merger.

There are several steps involved in conducting cybersecurity due diligence:

  1. Identify the scope of the due diligence: This includes determining which systems and assets need to be included in the review and identifying the key stakeholders who will be involved in the process.
  2. Collect and review documentation: This includes reviewing the target company’s cybersecurity policies and procedures, as well as any relevant documentation such as security assessments and incident reports.
  3. Conduct interviews and assessments: This involves interviewing key personnel within the target company to get a better understanding of their cybersecurity posture and conducting assessments of the target company’s systems and infrastructure to identify any vulnerabilities or weaknesses.
  4. Analyze findings: This involves analyzing the results of the review and assessment to determine the level of risk associated with the target company’s cybersecurity posture.
  5. Develop a plan: Based on the findings of the due diligence, the acquiring company may need to develop a plan to address any identified risks or vulnerabilities. This could include implementing new cybersecurity measures, training employees, or creating a plan to mitigate potential risks.
  6. Negotiate terms: If the acquiring company is satisfied with the target company’s cybersecurity posture, they can move forward with the M&A deal. If not, they may need to negotiate terms to address any identified risks or vulnerabilities before proceeding with the deal.
