In this video, Wouter Veugelen, Head of Cybersecurity Australia, outlines the various ways FTI Consulting can help private equity firms manage cyber risk in transactions.
If cybersecurity risks are not thoroughly assessed during a transaction, the organisation may suffer a data breach post-transaction, leaving the private equity firm accountable. FTI Consulting’s cybersecurity experts provide you with comprehensive support to assess and manage these cyber risks in several ways:
- Benchmarking exercises against best practice security standards - these exercises assist in assessing an organisation's cybersecurity maturity, both before and during a transaction.
- Security testing the organisation’s infrastructure – such as performing penetration testing to assess the maturity, resilience, security risks and vulnerabilities of the IT infrastructure, giving you a clearer picture of the organisation’s cybersecurity posture.
- Cybersecurity portfolio assessments – we continuously assess the cybersecurity maturity of all your portfolio companies, helping mitigate risk and manage potential threats effectively.
- Cybersecurity reporting obligations - helping you demonstrate the effectiveness of security controls and processes for your reporting requirements, such as annual reports and ESG reporting.
