## About

Cloudskope is a cybersecurity advisory firm in Dallas serving private equity sponsors, boards, CFOs, and general counsel. We answer three questions. What are we actually buying? Is someone already inside? What will it cost to fix? Our M&A cyber and IT technical due diligence gives deal teams an independent read on a target's environment before the purchase agreement is signed, including the exposure a target does not know it has. Marriott discovered an active intrusion in Starwood four years after closing. Verizon repriced Yahoo by $350 million when the breaches surfaced mid-deal. Diligence based on target self-disclosure cannot find what the target itself has not found.SARTUS is our fixed-fee assessment engagement. Three days across cloud configuration, dark web credential exposure, ransomware readiness, and active compromise. Three days of done-for-you remediation. Every finding lands in one risk register mapped to NIST SP 800-53 and the CIS Benchmarks, crosswalked to PCI DSS, SOC 2, HIPAA, and CMMC, so the same artifact serves auditors, underwriters, and deal teams. A recent SARTUS engagement found nine mailboxes already in adversary hands, one with more than four months of dwell time, in an environment the internal IT team believed was

secure. More than $150,000 had already been wired to attacker-controlled accounts.

Our breach analysis has been cited by Brian Krebs at KrebsOnSecurity, Reuters, ZDNet, and CRN. We maintain a public library of more than 80 breach investigations at cloudskope.com/breaches, written for the people who have to price the risk rather than the people who have to patch the server.
