Frequently Asked Questions
Cye can support your portfolio throughout the investment lifecycle—from pre-deal scouting and due diligence through post-acquisition improvement, ongoing exposure management, and exit readiness.
Before acquisition, Cye helps you identify cyber risks that could affect valuation, deal terms, or the decision to proceed.
In the first 90 days after close, Cye establishes a cybersecurity baseline and prioritizes the actions needed to address critical gaps.
Throughout the hold period, Cye provides continuous visibility into cyber exposure and maturity, helping portfolio companies prioritize and reduce risk while giving the PE firm a portfolio-wide view of progress.
Before exit, Cye helps demonstrate measurable improvement in cyber maturity and exposure, providing evidence of progress to prospective buyers.
At the private equity firm level, Cye provides a centralized, portfolio-wide view of cyber maturity and exposure. Benchmark holdings, identify outliers, drill down into individual companies and track progress over time, with reporting for the board and investment committee.
At the portfolio company level, Cye offers Maturity Management and Exposure Management:
Maturity Management helps companies establish and continuously improve their cybersecurity program — assessing maturity against NIST CSF 2.0, identifying gaps, prioritizing improvements and tracking progress.

Exposure Management identifies and prioritizes cyber exposure based on exploitability and business impact, using attack-path analysis to drive targeted mitigation.

Together, these solutions create a consistent view from portfolio company to PE firm, giving investment teams the visibility to understand risk, prioritize action and measure progress across the portfolio.
You can start with the portfolio companies where cybersecurity support is most needed and expand over time. Each portfolio company can enroll in either Maturity Management or Exposure Management.
As new acquisitions are added, they can be brought into the same portfolio structure and reporting framework, giving the PE firm a consistent view.
Cye provides a consistent framework for comparing cyber maturity and exposure across the portfolio, while accounting for each company’s unique environment and risk profile.
Maturity is measured against NIST CSF 2.0, while exposure is assessed based on vulnerabilities, attack paths, critical assets and business impact. Cye can also weight exposure by each company’s equity value, helping the PE firm see where the greatest investment is at risk.
This enables PE firms to benchmark holdings, identify outliers and prioritize action without applying a one-size-fits-all approach. Cye AI can also compare companies and quickly surface differences in maturity, exposure and financial impact.
Progress is continuously visible in the platform from the baseline established during the first 90 days, giving you an ongoing view of how cyber maturity and exposure are changing across each portfolio company.
You can track improvement over time and measure the impact of remediation rather than waiting for an annual assessment. Across Cye's customers, 96% of business-critical attack paths are blocked within six months of starting.
Due diligence findings are stored in a temporary platform instance for the deal team to review. If the deal does not close, or closes without further engagement, access is closed and the data is cleaned up at the end of the diligence process. Ongoing platform access begins when a company enters the hold-period program.
