Specialized Tech Due Diligence for US Private Equity
We run a 7-day architectural MRI on your acquisition target. Axylion executes deep-scan cyber audits, codebase stress tests, and cloud infrastructure assessments to quantify your technical debt before you close the deal.
When evaluating a Lower-Middle-Market target, financial due diligence is standard. But technical due diligence is often an afterthought, leaving PE funds exposed to catastrophic cyber vulnerabilities, unscalable database architectures, and undocumented legacy code.
We don't do the messy surgery of integration; we act as your expert radiologist. We deploy automated scanners and Fortune 100 architectural rigor to diagnose exactly what is hiding in the target's servers.
"A $25k audit pre-acquisition is the cheapest insurance policy you will ever buy against a $5M post-acquisition IT remediation nightmare."
Secure transfer of target source code and read-only cloud access into our air-gapped environment. Execution of SAST, DAST, and cloud posture scans.
Manual review by F100 Enterprise Architects. We analyze database schemas, API dependencies, and scalability bottlenecks.
Delivery of the final Due Diligence dashboard. We translate technical jargon into direct EBITDA impact and capital expenditure forecasts.
We bring Fortune 100 rigor to middle-market M&A. We quantify the exact technical debt you are buying, giving you leverage at the negotiating table.
Deep vulnerability scanning of AWS/Azure environments, firewall configurations, and endpoint management. We identify ransomware risks before they become your liability.
Static Application Security Testing (SAST) on the target's proprietary software. We evaluate if the codebase is modern, maintainable, or a spaghetti-code trap.
We don't just point out flaws. Every audit includes a prioritized, cost-estimated technical roadmap for the first 100 days post-close to secure and scale the asset.
Targets are terrified of handing over their source code during Due Diligence. Axylion solves this. We pull all target data into a proprietary, air-gapped, self-hosted infrastructure stack to run our scans. It is analyzed, reported, and purged without ever touching a third-party public cloud.
Axylion is led by senior enterprise architects who have designed, secured, and scaled mission-critical data systems for the world's largest corporations. We don't just run automated scripts; we apply decades of engineering intuition to uncover the risks that automated tools miss.
