Data Room Watermarking and Other Security Features
As more companies turn to virtual data rooms to conduct M&A fundraising, M&A and other financial transactions in business, they need more protection features to safeguard their information from tampering, theft, and leaks. One of the most beneficial tools is data room watermarking. This feature tracks unauthorized copies back to the source using invisible markers, making it hard to alter or remove without altering the original https://boardroomamerica.com/ensure-compliance-with-the-best-data-room-watermarking-and-audit-trail-feature files.
The process of watermarking digital data can be accomplished in a few different methods. It is possible to encrypt the data prior to embedding and «nesting» watermarks to make embedded data more difficult to extract. This technique is used by Closd to secure the personal information of our users as well as to protect against unauthorized access to sensitive files.
In addition, to protect the information of our users, we use document watermarking to improve security of Q&A attachments which are particularly vulnerable in certain situations. This feature automatically numbers questions in the section of questions and answers of the document, making it easy to refer to them later on during an audit.
Other security features for documents are also available to mitigate risk of access by unauthorized persons, like redaction which lets you quickly and easily remove (black out) images, text and certain areas of documents to avoid disclosure of personal information as well as critical business data. This feature is especially useful for documents that contain sensitive information like the Q&A section in documents. It can be applied to all file types.
