Businesses need to, first and foremost, safeguard their intellectual property (IP). The intellectual property aspect of the material is used for licensing, obtaining funding for future research, and careers are made or broken on the knowledge available. Documents reviewed in the due diligence process can include financial statements, cap tables, lists of shareholders, intellectual property (IP), employee, and management agreements. The advent of the virtual data room has made the diligence process considerably easier and, potentially, a lot less expensive. In some cases, data breaches are only identified weeks, sometimes months or years, later, which gives cybercriminals unfettered access over a long stretch of time. Using a virtual data room makes it possible for you to comply with transparency requirements while keeping control over the information. In this way a company can retain control over it’s document record, reduce exposure, reduce the cost of the transaction and have some legal recourse should proprietary information suddenly appear in a competitors product. Litigation, bankruptcies and restructuring projects may also require the sharing of large quantities of documentation that companies may want to keep careful track of and ensure that they retain control.
Navigate complex management and procurement challenges involved in government and infrastructure projects and RFPs. Consulting services, optional training, and round-the-clock support make Intralinks perfectly suited for larger enterprises with complex data storage and management needs (and budgets to match). So, why choose a Physical Data Room when you have a VDR? A VDR can collect and store all these important documents for an indefinite period of time. • The presence of a VDR tells the seller that the buyer is ready. This tool is commonly used in technology, life sciences, legal firms, investment banking, and private equity and venture capital. In fund management scenarios, whether private equity, venture capital, or hedge funds, the ability to monitor the fund independently often wins managers over. Therefore, a Virtual Data Room is a handy tool for C-level executives who seek to share confidential files and data amongst themselves; HR executives who have to maintain employee records; and project managers who have to manage various business operations. Savvy executives are realizing that having an organized document record, and a process for continually maintaining it, has significant merit. Typically someone, or a group of people, in the finance or legal departments is responsible for organizing the document record, it always takes longer than expected, it often comes down to the wire, many CFOs will have stories of pulling an “all-nighter” to get prepared!

The world of global finance depends heavily on security and confidentiality. What are the security measures required for your project and/or transaction? Ask: Where are the data centers located? These are the cases of data theft that make national headlines and cause consumers and businesses alike to increase the sense of urgency for better data security. However, the attackers may have been inside the system for over a decade, according to the president of US security firm Resecurity. If you have to engage a law firm or consultants to assist in corporate clean up it’s probably going to be expensive. Therefore, you’re bound to have questions, and so will your potential investors. Unfortunately, 2019 has already been home to a couple of potential mega breaches, most notably Citrix, as well as renewed concerns about the security of traditional file-sharing platforms, like Box. As a highly competitive, global field, security is paramount and documentation often needs to be shared across great distances. Data rooms make it possible to alert all parties to new documentation the moment it becomes available. It speeds up processes by reducing time frames and frustrations of document access during high-level deals and gives peace of mind to all parties involved.
