Ensuring Cyber Integrity Throughout a Divestiture or Carveout

Description: During divestitures, the IT leaders are tasked with a dual mandate of securely preparing for the separation without disrupting the operations of the seller RemainCo or the divested entity SpinCo. As part of the Transition Service Agreement TSA, the seller agrees to provide IT lights on support up until the SpinCo is able to fully stand up its operations or a full integration with the buyer is accomplished. This provides a unique challenge, wherein the RemainCo will have to create a secure access path into its environment for the SpinCo and its buyer’s users.
