When it comes to mergers and acquisitions, the buyer’s Chief Information Security Officer must ensure that the target company’s assets are safe from the moment due diligence begins. But manual auditing can be unnecessarily challenging, particularly when the target company is unable to share information needed to properly assess vulnerabilities. An automated system using AI and machine learning can more effectively catalog data and prepare the buyer for potential security risks. That process is best served by a cybersecurity partner adept at helping buyers understand the threat landscape.

This playbook, presented by Lucidum, a team of cybersecurity innovators, presents a deep dive into the acquisition process, including the risk profiles associated with each phase:

• Phase 1: Due Diligence
• Phase 2: Sign & Announce
• Phase 3: Integration
