Business, Computers and Escrow

Updated on Aug 23, 2014 by Tuan Do

Modern computers, and the related technologies, are very useful in today’s world. Most people use them for work purposes and, as such, they can become very important to productivity and financial success.

Likewise, this also presents itself with a few risks. Fortunately, escrow can be used to help prevent or protect against many of these. Software is a crucial example, with Escrow Associates offering software escrow. Similarly, escrow can also prove useful with the likes of Secure Due Diligence. As with most things, it helps to know as much as possible.

Important software

If you use a certain piece of software for work, it is understandably very important. You require it to work, yet rely on the provider to maintain it in a working condition. This is the typical end user agreement that you enter into with any software license. In exchange for not owning the product itself, such as the source code, the provider agrees to maintain a working piece of software. This is known as ‘Software as a Service’ (SaaS).

In case this ever fails, Software Escrow Services can provide a suitable counter measure. By placing the relative materials and resources into a secure escrow, the provider has an added imperative to maintain their service. If not, the escrow agency may deem it legally suitable to hand them over to you, with the legal power to do so as well.

Due diligence

In a similar fashion, the internet can also be useful when dealing with various business interactions, such as Mergers & Acquisitions. These often require outside parties to gain access to various sensitive information, yet doing so physically can be slow and disruptive, as well as having various security issues if it isn’t done correctly.

Yet escrow agencies can also specialize in offering Secure Due Dilligence. Again, this works by securing the relevant information and only handing access to those in a legal position to obtain it. This keeps everything online, reducing disturbance, and means it can be done quickly and effectively.

Other services

This isn’t all that escrow can be used for either. Hardware escrow works similarly to software equivalents, whilst penetration testing and other security measures can help secure your website, server or data from harm. In short, there are plenty of options. If you use the right ones, you can help better secure yourself against various risks, ensuring success for you and your business.
