Everest Consolidator Acquisition Corp - (MNTN)

10-K Filing Date: April 15, 2024
Item 1C. Cybersecurity.

We are a SPAC with no business operations. Since our IPO, our sole business activity has been identifying and evaluating suitable acquisition transaction candidates. However, we do depend on the digital technologies of third parties, including information systems and infrastructure, and as noted in Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, any sophisticated and deliberate attacks on, or security breaches in, systems or infrastructure that we utilize, including those of third parties, could lead to corruption or misappropriation of our assets, proprietary information and sensitive or confidential data. Because of our reliance on the technologies of third parties, we also depend upon the personnel and the processes of third parties to protect against cybersecurity threats, and we have no personnel or processes of our own for this purpose.

Our board of directors oversees risk for our Company. In the event of a cybersecurity incident impacting us, the management team will report to the board of directors and provide updates on the management team’s incident response plan for addressing and mitigating any risks associated with such an incident. As an early-stage company without significant investments in data security protection, we may not be sufficiently protected against such occurrences. We also lack sufficient resources to adequately protect against, or to investigate and remediate any vulnerability to, cyber incidents. It is possible that any of these occurrences, or a combination of them, could have material adverse consequences on our business and lead to financial loss. We have not encountered any cybersecurity incidents since our IPO.
