Flag Cyber Deal-Breakers Early
Rapid screening to surface vulnerabilities before heavy diligence spend
Identify risk exposure that can threaten the investment thesis
Inform go/no-go decisions and early IC discussions
Prioritise confirmatory diligence focus areas
Praetorian supports Pre-LOI Screening & IC Prep with rapid cyber risk screening that highlights potential deal-breakers early. It helps deal teams avoid blind spots, focus confirmatory diligence on the right areas, and incorporate cyber risk into early valuation and risk discussions.
Independent Cyber Diligence That Supports Deal Protections
Deep cyber diligence to identify vulnerabilities and validate resilience
Quantify risk exposure and remediation requirements
Provide mitigation insights to support deal protections and planning
Reduce post-close surprises and execution risk
In confirmatory diligence, Praetorian provides independent cybersecurity diligence that identifies vulnerabilities, quantifies exposure, and validates resilience before capital is deployed. The outputs support pragmatic mitigation planning and can inform protections and remediation commitments — ensuring cyber does not become a hidden liability that impacts value.
Continuous Cyber Protection to Prevent Value Erosion
Strengthen cyber posture and protect critical assets
Align security spend with a pragmatic, risk-based approach
Support best-practice compliance expectations from customers and regulators
Reduce disruption and reputational risk from breaches
During the Holding Period, Praetorian supports Continuous Risk & Downside Protection by improving cyber maturity and preventing incidents that erode value. It helps management teams demonstrate robust cybersecurity to customers, regulators, and investors while keeping security investment commercially efficient and aligned with growth strategy.
Remove Security-Driven Buyer Risk at Exit Readiness

Pre-empt buyer concerns that slow the process or reduce price
Strengthen equity story with evidence of secure, compliant operations
Reduce valuation haircuts linked to cyber uncertainty
At Exit Readiness, Praetorian reduces friction by validating cyber resilience and remediating red flags in advance. Evidence of secure, compliant operations strengthens the equity story, reduces buyer uncertainty, and prevents valuation leakage caused by security concerns during diligence.
