In a recent project, Avalia was engaged to assist a client considering the acquisition of a company specializing in an AI security solution. Our client was drawn to the target company's claims of proprietary, cutting-edge technology. However, Avalia's comprehensive due diligence process revealed critical insights that significantly impacted the acquisition decision.
Upon entering the project, our initial assessments revealed discrepancies between the target company's claims and the actual capabilities of their technology. They purported to have developed a unique, proprietary AI for security, but our expert analysis suggested otherwise.
Leveraging Expert Knowledge
One of the pivotal steps in our process was consulting with a leading expert in AI security from our network, who is a renowned authority in Switzerland. Avalia's integration into Switzerland's innovative ecosystem, which has held the top global position for several years, allowed us to leverage this world-class expertise. This expert provided an in-depth analysis and pointed out that the claims made by the target company lacked substantial evidence and did not align with the current state-of-the-art in AI security technology.
"Our access to top experts globally allows us to provide precise assessments, protecting clients from poor investments." — Anderson Soffa, Cybersecurity Specialist, Avalia.
The Impact on the Client Decision
Our team conducted a thorough review of the target company's codebase. This examination, guided by insights from our expert, revealed that the technology was not as advanced as claimed.
Based on Avalia's findings, our client decided not to proceed with the acquisition. The insights provided by our expert network and the detailed technical assessment protected the client from making a potentially costly investment in technology that did not meet their expectations.
