Si está pensando en un software basado en la nube para su propia empresa software license management, including Contratos/Gestión de derechos, Entrega de activos digitales y guías de estilo, Flujos de trabajo de aprobación de productos, y Gestión de la seguridad needs, it’s an exciting process. You’re changing how your business does business.

The potential to achieve meaningful cost savings, improve visibility into license usage, and significantly increase productivity is within reach. 

However, it can be a scary proposition to outsource the housing of your brand’s data, assets, and software licensing and security to a 3rd-party provider.

  • ¿Qué pasa si el proveedor cierra repentinamente el negocio?
  • What if the vendor’s software, infrastructure, or secure software licensing is not safe and reliable?
  • What if they cannot pay their bills or support software protection?

Selecting the right product and vendor can mean the difference between improved productivity and disaster.

Strong financial resources allow a SaaS vendor to invest in licensing software, infrastructure, and developers required to support and protect consumer brands. 

On the other hand, if a SaaS vendor is in a weak financial position, such as the business operating paycheck-to-paycheck, it can have an adverse impact on the level of investment they make in software protection for your valuable brand. So, what can you do to protect your brands?

Evaluate software license security risks by asking prospective vendors questions like these:

  1. In which countries will my data and licensed brand assets be stored?
  2. Does the SaaS vendor develop and maintain its licensing software “in-house” or do they outsource to other countries?
  3. Does the SaaS vendor own the hardware/software that provides this specialized service, or do they “rent” space on 3rd-party managed hardware/cloud service?
  4. ¿Los centros de datos del proveedor de SaaS cumplen con la norma SSAE 16?
  5. ¿La solución de software del proveedor de Saas está totalmente gestionada directamente por su equipo de TI?
  6. Does the SaaS vendor have an InfoSec Officer and an Information Security Policy governing secure software licensing?

Answers to these questions and others will help you to determine whether the SaaS vendor you’re considering is a safe bet or a high risk when it comes to software licensing and security.
