Merger & Acquisition (M&A)

Cybersecurity Solutions for the Merger & Acquisition (M&A)

Challenge Overview

Mergers and acquisitions pose unique cybersecurity challenges as organizations merge assets, infrastructures, and data. Integration often reveals legacy vulnerabilities, compliance gaps, and inconsistent security postures, creating opportunities for attackers. Cybersecurity due diligence is now critical, as weak measures can derail negotiations or devalue deals. To safeguard transitions, organizations must address technical risks, ensure compliance, and adopt a specialized approach to secure systems and data. Effective cybersecurity during M&A is essential to protect assets and maintain deal integrity.
