A audit of a data room is a process to ensure that the data room is secure enough to store and present sensitive files. After the system has been set up and checked, authorized users will be able to access the materials via an encrypted browser-based interface. It is crucial to set access restrictions and permissions to limit who can download, edit or print the files. This can be accomplished by creating a user profile that’s secure for each user. It is also important to monitor who is using the information by recording the activity in a data room log.
Most common use case: due diligence
Virtual data rooms (VDRs) are typically used to facilitate the review and approval of private documents in an M&A deal. In the course of due diligence, the sell-side requires a secure platform for storing documents, while investors who are interested require a suitable location to view it.
It’s important to keep in mind that a dataroom should only contain information that is relevant to the deal. Too much information can detract buyers from the essential aspects. Additionally, providing too much information can crush momentum and reduce your chances of success in financing.
Legal companies and compliance departments are required to adhere to strict regulations when dealing with confidential business documents. They can benefit from the security features of a data room such as watermarking, access based on roles, to streamline their processes. Life science companies are often in charge of handling large quantities of sensitive data such as clinical discoveries and research findings. Data rooms can be used to protect these discoveries, and speed up time consuming procedures such as licensing.
