Online data room and SSL
Online data rooms are cloud-based services designed specifically for the secure storing and sharing of confidential documents. They are typically used during due diligence in M&A transactions, but can be used for any business needing a trusted environment to share sensitive documentation with selected third-party partners.
A virtual data room can make the due diligence process more efficient and effective. It provides a common platform on which all stakeholders can access and examine documents. This also decreases the time that is spent sifting through endless emails and other communication channels to find the information you need.

Common features include two-factor authentication, SSO, and granular permissions. They can also provide dynamic watermarks, which appear on every document downloaded printed, printed or viewed and can contain the user’s name IP address, name, date and time of access, and much more.
VDRs can also be used for creating and coordinate guided signatures among various stakeholders. This is an improvement over traditional methods of sending multiple copies of documents back and forth for signatures which could result in editing conflicts and delay the process of negotiating. Utilizing VDR VDR will streamline the process of collecting digital signatures and speed up M&A deals.
