Answer investor and board questions
Show posture in numbers, not adjectives
At seed, nobody asks. Around Series A the diligence pack grows a security section, and by Series B there is a board member who raises it every quarter.
What's actually happening
The questions are simple to ask and hard to answer. What is our exposure. Are we compliant with anything. What happened with that incident in March. What are we getting for the security spend. “We take security seriously” is not an answer, and everyone in the room knows it. Technical diligence will ask for the pen test report, the certificate, the incident log, and the vendor register. Missing them rarely kills a round on its own, but it costs weeks and sometimes terms.
How we help
We give you a posture baseline first, so there is a number on the table instead of a feeling. Then a risk register written in business language, with owners, treatment plans and review dates, because a board cannot approve a risk it cannot read.
Every quarter you get a pack a non-technical director can follow: audit readiness percentage, open critical findings and how long each has been open, coverage across access, endpoints and backups, the top risks with the plan against each, and what the programme cost to run. When the raise starts, that same data becomes your diligence pack.
Our vCISO can sit in the meeting and take the follow-up questions if you would rather not field them alone.
