The Matrix

Business transactions, management changes or investments involving non-U.S. companies or individuals receiving control or information rights to U.S. companies are subject to review by the U.S. government for national security purposes. There is a particular concern if any sensitive individual or government data is held by the U.S. company.  U.S. companies holding sensitive data should consider whether their business may be subject to CFIUS review prior to entering any investment or engaging in M&A activities.
