We dig deep to give clients an independent picture of their operational and proprietary technology- what's broken, what's exposed, and what it means.
Whether you develop technology or depend on it to operate, the risks inside the Tech Black Box exist and are compounding across privacy and security, business continuity, IP ownership, and financial exposure. These critical findings are hard to detect using standard technical due diligence.
Whether you manage a fund with a hard exit mandate or permanent capital with no clock running, the technical risk is identical and equally capable of destroying value post-close.
Businesses face the same blind spot from the other side. A leadership team preparing for M&A or investment, or simply protecting their proprietary or operational technology, their customers, and their valuation, rarely has an independent forensic picture into the Tech Black Box.
You don't need vendor or inside access to see inside the Tech Black Box. The Redline Sniff Test surfaces what's really there within one business day, without vendor access, without assumptions. Findings are evidenced and graded. Deal blockers flagged for immediate escalation. Nothing softened.
The fastest way to find out what's really inside the Tech Black Box.
At final valuation, the Tech Black Box has to be opened fully, forensically, and without compromise. The Deep-Dive Audit delivers the Ground Truth report: Every technical liability quantified, every finding evidenced, nothing softened.
The most complete forensic picture of a technology asset you can get before you sign.
The Lahav Advisory IRL includes dedicated sections for AI/ML governance and Cybersecurity reflecting the risk surface of every modern technology acquisition, not just the codebase. Want to see what a finding looks like?Request an illustrative finding set →
Founder, Lahav Advisory
Ken Lahav has spent 25 years building and operating technology across three continents - Israel, Australia, and the United States. From early-stage startups to global enterprises, across commercial, government, and non-profit sectors, he has worked at every scale and in every condition a technology organisation can find itself in. That breadth is the foundation of the practice. Across SaaS platforms, fintech infrastructure, e-commerce, marketplaces, and AI, Ken brings the pattern recognition of someone who has built these systems, not just assessed them. He knows what good looks like. He knows what hidden looks like. Lahav Advisory was founded on a simple observation: Standard technical due diligence is no longer enough. A forensic one is required instead.
