SecureScale: DevSecOps Automation for Private Equity Portfolio Companies

Private equity firms face a critical imperative: maximizing portfolio value while managing technology risk across multiple acquisitions. Without standardized security and DevOps practices, portfolio companies operate with fragmented cloud environments, inconsistent security controls, and regulatory exposure that directly impacts enterprise value and exit multiples.
