Data stored in the virtual data room are highly sensitive.

It is prima facie that the data stored in these spaces are highly sensitive and meant to be confidential. But if this data is vulnerable, it can cause tremendous loss to the companies. It is very vital that you keep stored data confidential. A major portion of data stored by these companies is financial information. Financial information is nothing less than very sensitive information. As much as the VDR aids the process of due diligence, there is also the risk of a data breach. Data breaches compromise the data of the companies and put them in a vulnerable spot.

What is a data breach?

“Any unauthorized or accidental disclosure, acquisition, sharing, use, alteration, destruction of or loss of access to, personal data that compromises the confidentiality, integrity or availability of personal data to a data principal”. Any data available is prone to a data breach. Since the companies use the virtual data rooms for due diligence, the data so stored in financial data. Hence, this is a breach of sensitive data. It is possible to report a data breach, and the authorities may take necessary action on the defaulter. However, the reputation of the companies is at stake, and they may suffer monetary losses. Therefore, it is very important to find a secure platform.

Right to privacy:

When there is a data breach, it is a violation of one’s right to privacy. No one shall be subjected to arbitrary or unlawful interference with his privacy, family, home, and correspondence, nor to unlawful attacks on his honor and reputation. The apex court of India upheld the right to privacy as a fundamental right. The court observed the right to privacy included spatial control. Plus it also observes decisional autonomy and informational control. And it concluded that privacy was an integral part of human dignity.

Protecting one’s financial information also falls under the right to privacy. Every person has the right to keep their financial information private. And these companies also have the right to keep their data secure and private. There are cyber legislations that help combat data breaches and attacks. But however, they still happen. Companies need to choose carefully which platform on which they transact and store their data. Over the years, companies have been victims of data breaches. This has caused great inconvenience to them and their clients. Cognizant was recently tormented by a data breach. They anticipate a loss amounting to USD 50-70 Million. This is just one example of several data breaches that take place every day.
