They Got Breached Mid-Merger
from Tech Deep Dive Hosted by ITBroker.com
What if the company you just bought came with a hidden cyber landmine? M&A is risky enough. But when cybersecurity gaps go unchecked during a merger, the consequences aren't just technical — they’re financial, operational, and reputational. And most leaders don’t see the breach coming until it’s too late. In this episode, Max Clark sits down with Kevin Thomsen, CRO of Maxxsure to unpack what really happens when cybersecurity is treated like a checkbox during mergers and acquisitions. They dive into risk quantification, breach modeling, insurance failures, and the dangerous disconnect between CISOs, the board, and private equity firms. If you’ve ever asked, “Are we covered?” — this is the episode you need to watch. Because it’s not just a breach. It’s a $29M mistake.
