Technology Escrow

Modern manufacturing and industrial organizations depend heavily on specialized software to manage supply chains, production planning, logistics, quality control, and regulatory compliance. From ERP and MES platforms to supplier portals and custom-built applications, software is now deeply embedded in operational continuity. While these systems enable efficiency and scalability, they also introduce a critical risk that […]

Artificial intelligence is no longer an experimental capability reserved for innovation teams. Across industries, AI platforms now support revenue generation, customer engagement, risk analysis, and core operational decision making. As reliance on AI grows, so does the importance of selecting vendors that can support long-term business objectives without introducing unacceptable risk. For CIOs and enterprise

Enterprise organizations are under increasing pressure to manage third-party software risk while maintaining procurement velocity. Yet many teams still treat software escrow as an afterthought rather than a strategic control. The reality is straightforward. If a critical vendor fails, your operations, data access, and service continuity are immediately at risk. This is where structured escrow

If your company already maintains a software escrow agreement or SaaS escrow agreement, you may assume switching escrow agents is complicated, risky, or expensive. In reality, transferring escrow providers is often straightforward — and can significantly improve service, reduce annual fees, consolidate legacy agreements, and eliminate administrative burden. This guide explains: Why companies transfer software

Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming embedded in enterprise operations, supporting functions that range from analytics and automation to customer engagement and decision support. As AI systems transition from experimental initiatives to mission-critical infrastructure, enterprise organizations face a growing set of risks that extend beyond traditional software concerns. AI and emerging technology risk encompasses operational dependency,

Artificial intelligence has moved rapidly from experimentation to production deployment. What once lived in research environments or internal prototypes is now embedded in customer-facing applications, decision-making systems, and core business workflows. For software developers, this transition introduces a new category of risk that extends beyond traditional software concerns. AI and emerging technology risk encompasses more

Financial services organizations rely heavily on software to support core operations, customer engagement, and regulatory compliance. From online banking platforms to payment processing systems and risk management tools, third-party technology has become deeply embedded in day-to-day financial activity. As reliance on external software providers grows, so does exposure to third-party technology risk. Financial institutions must

In B2B software environments, trust is built over time through reliability, transparency, and continuity. While security certifications play an important role in demonstrating compliance and governance, they represent only one dimension of software risk management. For software developers, particularly those delivering mission critical platforms, long-term trust depends on how well operational, vendor, and lifecycle risks

Innovation drives competitive advantage—but for enterprise organizations, innovation without risk controls is not strategy, it is exposure. Nearly every transformative technology follows a predictable adoption pattern. A small group of innovators builds it. Early adopters test it. Success stories emerge. Then, at some point, larger and more risk-aware organizations consider deploying it at scale. Between
