Virtual data rooms are secure storage facilities that permit users to view confidential documents in a controlled setting during due diligence or other business transactions. It offers a high degree of security protocols that generic file-sharing platforms don’t have, including access to the user’s permissions at a high level for encryption at rest and in transit and two-factor authentication as well as content watermarking and audit trails that show logins, uploads and downloads. These features lower the threat of intellectual theft and unauthorised access to sensitive financial and corporate information that could undermine deals and lead to lawsuits.
The most frequent use of a virtual data room is sharing IP documents during M&A due diligence with third entities like potential running a successful startup buyers or licensing partners. The scalability of virtual data rooms also makes them useful for sharing large or confidential files with internal teams and the stakeholders. They also facilitate collaboration with auditors, outside counsels, or consultants.
A virtual data room can be used to speed up the due diligence process for external participants in restructuring or bankruptcy. These kinds of transactions typically require reviews of a company’s financial performance and debt, accounting reports such as cash flow statements capital expenditure budgets, legal agreements and liens, and credit reports. A secure data room system is required to ensure that no one is able to access these vital documents and ensure the integrity of the transaction.
