Wil Klu, host of The Keyboard Samurai, sits down with Orville Williams, VP of Cybersecurity and Risk at Trilon Group, to explain what cybersecurity looks like during mergers and acquisitions. Drawing on his work across 14 partner firms, Orville shares how teams uncover legacy hardware, licensing gaps, shadow IT, unknown VPNs, and phishing risk while moving acquired companies toward a common security baseline. This episode is for executives, deal teams, CISOs, CIOs, and IT leaders responsible for cybersecurity due diligence or post-merger integration. You’ll hear how to: • Bring security into the M&A process earlier • Price hidden integration and remediation costs • Set a 30-to-60-day cybersecurity integration plan • Improve asset visibility and find unknown systems • Deploy practical controls such as MFA, EDR, and email security • Protect employees from phishing, impersonation, and payment fraud Follow The Keyboard Samurai for more business-first cybersecurity conversations, and share this episode with someone responsible for the next acquisition.
