Many people are familiar with file sharing services such as Dropbox or Google Drive. However, they’re not as secure and convenient as an enterprise-grade VDR that was designed specifically for business use. Users can collaborate on files in real time and immediately revoke access in the event of a security breach. A VDR can also allow administrators to receive reports on document activity, such as the length of time each document was viewed and by who.
Virtual data rooms are employed by a variety of businesses to facilitate complex financial transactions, in addition to other mission-critical business processes. Investment bankers, VCs and private equity firms frequently analyze several deals at once which generates huge amounts of data that need to be organized and secure distribution.
By using an intelligent virtual information room, it’s easy to spot important trends in the data and simplify due diligence for M&A. In addition should the company be contemplating an IPO or capital raising, the VDR can help keep the process on track.
In the same way, energy and mining companies often share large amounts of documents with regulators and investors. Using an intelligent business VDR it is simple to manage access and ensure conformance with regional regulations, such as GDPR and CCPA. A VDR offers greater online security than any cloud service and includes features like fence view, built in redaction, granular access and remote shred. Furthermore, a reputable company VDR provider will provide immediate assistance (and 24/7 assistance) when there’s an issue.
