Scenario
Buy-side / investor due diligence
You are looking at an acquisition, a growth investment, or your own pre-raise position, and the technology diligence keeps stopping at the same wall: the target runs in the cloud, and nobody on either side can tell you in plain terms how exposed that cloud actually is. You need an independent read you can put in front of a deal team and an investment committee -- one that separates real risk from noise before you sign.
What usually goes wrong
Cloud risk hides where diligence rarely looks. A questionnaire and a data room show policies, not the live estate -- so an over-privileged access model, customer data sitting in an unencrypted or publicly reachable store, or a configuration baseline that drifted from its intended state goes undisclosed until after close. What looked like a clean asset becomes an unbudgeted remediation program, a renegotiation, or a valuation surprise that surfaces at the worst possible time.
How the health check fits
With the target's cooperation we run the health check as an independent, read-only review -- who has access, where sensitive data lives, and how far configuration has drifted from a secure baseline -- across the accounts in scope on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Nothing is written to their environment. You get a findings report ranked by real risk and mapped to the frameworks a board already reads, so the deal team can price remediation, shape reps and warranties, and build a post-close plan from a known picture rather than an assertion.
Domains that matter most
Questions
Can you assess before the deal closes?
Yes, with read-only access granted by the target under your diligence agreement. The review changes nothing in their environment and produces findings you can weigh before you sign.
Is this a certification or a clean bill of health?
No. It is an independent assessment that finds and ranks real exposure and maps it to recognized frameworks. It is not a guarantee against breach -- its value in a deal is an accurate, prioritized risk picture, not a seal.
Get ahead of it
A health check finds and prioritizes real exposure. It is not a certification or a promise you will never be breached — closing the findings is what changes your risk.
How it works
From request to a plan you can run
However you got here, the health check runs the same way — request, scope, read-only assessment, ranked report, and remediation.
