Brainloop Secure Dataroom protects important documents, financial reports and strategical projects, and allows secure document exchange and access in inter-enterprise processes. Brainloop Secure Dataroom's end to end security architecture includes encryption for storage and transmission of documents and a strong user authentication. A two factor mechanism can be used for strong authentication. Users receive a text message key sent to their mobile phone, or ELCA's own solution the "ELCARD".

 

"The electronic vault from Brainloop ideally enhances our IT security and document management solution portfolio. The secure management of confidential documents, including editing, distribution and storing within the company, as well as during inter-company collaboration is paramount for our clients," said Christian Hunziker, Head of Marketing & Sales of ELCA Informatik AG. "The audit trail ensures that all operations in the Dataroom adhere to modern compliance regulations and to the Corporate Governance Codex."
