Overcome the Data Risks That M&A and Divestitures Introduce

M&A and divestitures provide new opportunities for growth by helping boost market share, integrate new innovations, and refocus resources to maximize profitability. But, the complexity and volume of unknown data, a need to provide access across multiple entities, and the growing threat landscape - make data security paramount.

Ensure Due Diligence, Assess Risks, and Streamline Data Management Before and After the Transaction

Make it simple for both the buyer, and seller, parties to identify and assess valuable data like intellectual property (IP) and personally identifiable data (PII).

Easily discover and classify data with 95% precision across entities to inform the transaction process, then auto-identify data volumes that are unique to the business, and its intellectual property

Continuously verify if necessary security configurations (i.e. encryption, masking, tokenization) are met. Even request a data risk assessment and learn how to approach data security as part of the transaction

Identify if all parties are properly managing data retention, separation, and deletion policies related to sensitive data

Zero Trust Data Access and Control

Maintain security, and controlled access to sensitive data during a transaction in order to prevent leaks, or any authorized access to data.

Discover employees, third-parties, or AI copilots that have access to sensitive data and assign a trust level to each, determine if MFA is turned on, and if there’s anomalous behavior

Identify if all parties are properly managing data retention, separation, and deletion policies related to sensitive data

Share data and identity insights with Cyera’s data protection service, or other security technologies already deployed in your environment - i.e data loss prevention (DLP), security service edge (SSE), extended detection and response (XDR), email security etc.
