VDRs provide a secure and secure method to share data and analyze it in a user-friendly, collaborative environment. They can also aid organizations comply with privacy regulations like GDPR and CCPA.
The suggestion that software users should be provided with an VDR has gained momentum. The latest SPDX SBOM standard, version 2.3, includes provisions (K.1.9) that enable software vendors to associate a NIST VDR attestation for their product with the associated SBOM and thus make the VDR an "living" part of the SBOM. The NIST VDR attestation is linked in a variety of ways, including via URL, using the CycloneDX standard from OWASP (which allows both VDR and VEX) as well as direct links to other sources of vulnerability management information, such as GitHub repositories or feeds that are public.
For instance airlines have used Flight Data Recorders (FDR) for a long time to decrease the number of crashes on aircrafts and save lives. VDRs have similar benefits and the analysis of results could lead to improved safety.
VDRs are used in a variety of ways for business However, the most popular are M&A procedures, where they allow both parties to perform due diligence as negotiations take place. They can also be used to share sensitive data in the course of a project, such as results of clinical trials or research and development. AES encryption can increase the security of a VDR. This is the most advanced type of encryption available today and is widely used by banks, government agencies and online banking.
