Acquiring companies face a long list of risks that must be assessed and carefully accounted for during due diligence: financial, litigation, intellectual property and regulatory matters all represent potential inherited impact on a business. Indeed, when you buy a company, you buy their data and endpoints.
Today, disparate security and IT operations practices between companies represent a growing concern for acquiring corporations. Essentially, it is rare for both companies to have the same standards for cybersecurity, asset management and IT policies, such as BYOD. In fact, unknown threats might already have infiltrated the acquired company’s endpoints leaving companies exposed to future data compromise, fines and loss of trust with customers.
