Private equity (PE) sponsors must navigate the complex challenges of an evolving cybersecurity landscape. However, many firms take an inconsistent approach to cyber oversight, leaving the firm and its portfolio companies exposed to increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks. For PE sponsors, managing the oversight of this mutating threat landscape effectively requires understanding of risks, gaps in programs, and the resources available to address them.
To help address these challenges, we have collected data from our proprietary RealRisk scoring model and a survey of PortCo cybersecurity budgets, staffing, and priorities.
Join us on August 20, 2025, as our cybersecurity experts, Matt Grist, Isaac Niedrauer, and Greg Slayton reveal findings from these data sets and provide benchmarks and analyses that PE sponsors need to strengthen their oversight practices.
