Secure Your Portfolio. Protect Your Returns.
Cybersecurity is now a board-level concern for PE firms. I help you quantify cyber risk in portfolio companies, drive EBITDA through vendor consolidation, and ensure exit-ready compliance posture.
The pressure in this market
These are the challenges I hear from leaders in your space every day.
Hidden Cyber Risk in Acquisitions
Undiscovered breaches and security debt can destroy deal value. The average data breach costs $5M—and that's before reputational damage.
Portfolio-Wide Vulnerability
One compromised portfolio company can cascade risk across your entire fund. Do you have visibility into each company's security posture?
SEC Regulation S-P Compliance
New SEC requirements (now in effect as of Dec 2025) mandate formal incident response programs and 30-day breach notification. Are your portfolio companies meeting these new enforcement standards?
Exit Readiness Concerns
Buyers scrutinize security posture during due diligence. Missing certifications or weak programs can reduce valuations or kill deals.

The services on this page are hands-on and per-company. For the portfolio-wide version I am building Valty: cyber risk in dollars for private equity portfolios. It verifies whether security controls actually work from evidence, not attestations, then turns what remains into loss numbers and a funding order an operating partner can act on.
