- Future acquisitions may be unsuccessful and may negatively affect operations and financial condition.
- The company may be unable to protect its intellectual property.
- If the company loses its key personnel or is unable to hire additional personnel, it will have trouble growing its business.
- Because the company's executive officers collectively own a majority of its outstanding shares, they can elect its directors without regard to other stockholders votes.

- Since the company has acquired ReachOut and changed its focus to cyber security, it is difficult for potential investors to evaluate its future consolidated business.
- Failure to manage the company's growth may be detrimental to its business because its infrastructure may not be adequate for expansion.
- The company will need to increase the size of its organization, and it may experience difficulties in managing growth, which would hurt its financial performance.
- The company's business depends on experienced and skilled personnel, and if it is unable to attract and integrate skilled personnel, it will be more difficult for it to manage its business and complete contracts.
- The company expects to expand its business, in part, through future acquisitions, but it may not be able to identify or complete suitable acquisitions, which could harm its financial performance.

- Difficult conditions in the global capital markets and the economy generally may materially adversely affect the company's business and results of operations.
- The company is eligible to be treated as an emerging growth company as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, and it cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make its common stock less attractive to investors.
- The company's directors and executive officers beneficially own a significant number of shares of its common stock. Their interests may conflict with its outside stockholders, who may be unable to influence management and exercise control over its business.
- The company does not intend to pay cash dividends to its stockholders, so you will not receive any return on your investment in the company prior to selling your interest in the company.

- The company's common stock may be deemed a penny stock, which would make it more difficult for its investors to sell their shares.

- There is no guarantee that the company will satisfy the conditions to the Equity Financing Agreement.
- There is no guarantee that the company will be able to fully utilize the Equity Line.
- Sales of put shares under the Purchase Agreement could result in the possibility of short sales.
