Managing large, diverse portfolios is a complex task—especially under growing pressure from new threats.
As an experienced partner of private equity firms, we know how relevant cybersecurity is to the value, stability and profitability of the portfolio—and how challenging cybersecurity can be.
Especially in the wake of an acquisition, attacks on portfolio companies increase sharply - because cybercriminals expect high profit margins through fresh capital.
Cyber maturity levels and regulatory requirements often differ significantly in the portfolio and remain difficult to manage without a comprehensive overview. Poor cybersecurity practices can reduce the creditworthiness of individual portfolio companies and also result in critical risks remaining undetected in the portfolio.
