Cybersecurity Assessment Program (CAP) for Private Equity
Our Cybersecurity Assessment Program (CAP) provides a holistic review across people, process, and technology, resulting in a one-time or ongoing program that is customizable based on your PE Firm or Company’s business model and industry.
With cyber breaches and attacks on the rise worldwide, Portfolio companies of Private Equity Firms as well as other fast-growing organizations need an unbiased, standardized cybersecurity assessment to identify their cyber risks and provide a remediation plan.
Most companies face these cybersecurity challenges:
- Inconsistency around the business risk profile
- Limited enforcement and accountability
- Limited time availability from management to monitor MSPs and cyber risks
- Difficult to determine the right level of investment in cybersecurity protection
- Financial fraud exposure risk as a result of their clients’ cybersecurity breaches
- Lack of a clear path to resolution
Our efficient team of experts help CFOs and CIOs find a clear path forward from these common challenges with a brief, efficient, high-impact Cybersecurity Risk Assessment engagement that not only identifies risks, but provides a clear remediation plan for resolution going forward.
