Life science companies like biotech and pharma often are liable to handling a huge amount of confidential data. Inability to secure these data could lead to an espionage attack by competitors or even a lawsuit. A reliable VDR can allow companies in the life sciences sector to store sensitive information in one central location, which allows for collaboration between teams as well as external stakeholders. A robust audit trail also records each login, agreement clicked, video viewed and document that is viewed in detail. This helps ensure transparency and accountability during the due diligence process and assists with regulatory compliance.
