Vault product iconOSS® (#OSS) for investment and M&A

Keep M&A data offline. Air-gapped storage for deal rooms and portfolio records.

Deal information loses value the moment it leaks. Keep the definitive record of every transaction on dedicated hardware that is physically disconnected between uses.

A simple confidentiality question

When the data room closes, where does the definitive deal record actually live?

Transaction material is duplicated across advisers, platforms and inboxes, then left connected for years. The problem is not only leaks. It is that deal material is most reachable when it is most valuable.

  1. Between sessions there is no data room link, no share and no credential leading to the material.

  2. Access lists grow, downloads persist and copies survive in environments you do not control.

  3. Price-sensitive material only needs to be reachable while the work is being done.

  4. Recorded retrieval demonstrates handling to counterparties, regulators and investors.

The principle

Select. Secure. Disconnect.
Access when required.

Value and exposure peak at the same moment. Select the definitive record, secure it, disconnect it, and open it only when it is required.

Switch models, pick a step to compare, or run an incident through it.

What protects it

Connected storage

Firewalls, logins and monitoring defend a connection that’s always there.

Offline Secure Storage®

There’s no standing network path. A route exists only for a session you open from your registered phone.

The route stays open, so the copy stays reachable.The route is removed, so the copy is out of reach by default.

First-pass inventory

Start with the material that would be most damaging to leak and most important to produce in a claim or an audit.

What belongs offline

A data room is for the deal. This is for afterwards.

Everyday and connected

Keep convenience where it helps.

Connected data rooms suit the live process and the questions in it.

  • Live data room access
  • Active diligence questions
  • Working models in progress
  • Current portfolio reporting
  • Everyday adviser collaboration

Important and offline

Give consequence a different state.

Selected records can be available when required without remaining permanently reachable.

  • Completed transaction documents
  • Disclosed diligence sets
  • Final models and valuations
  • Investment approvals
  • Long-term portfolio archive

A data room keeps deal material connected. Firevault gives the definitive record somewhere else to live.Online when you need it. Offline when you do not.

Who can reach it

Release deal material deliberately.

Ownership, controlled sharing and recorded access are separate decisions. Access is a decision, not a default.

  • Verified owner
  • Deal team
  • Legal or auditor
  • Succession route

  • One vault per user

    Access is linked to a verified individual rather than a fund-wide credential.

  • Share a document, not the archive

    Release the specific record a claim, audit or investor request requires.

  • Recorded retrieval

    Retrievals are logged, supporting warranty, audit and regulatory positions.

Why Firevault

Physics, not promises.

Every Offline Secure Storage® instance is built on the same four physical principles.

  • Physical storage

    Offline Secure Storage instances are held on dedicated physical hard drives, not in S3 cloud buckets, shared storage pools or multi-tenant infrastructure. Your selected data is assigned to real hardware, with dedicated RAID 1 drives providing resilience.

    Explore physical storage

  • Physical ownership

    Each Offline Secure Storage instance is allocated to a specific customer, with dedicated physical capacity and clearly defined ownership. Your data is not pooled, commingled or held within a shared storage estate.

    Explore physical ownership
  • Physically disconnected Offline Secure Storage: server, three drives and a padlock

    Physical control

    Access begins outside the normal network path. An authorised out-of-band command, such as SMS, controls the physical Layer 1 connection to your #OSS instance. When access is not required, that network path is physically disconnected.

    Explore physical control

  • Physical security

    Your #OSS hardware is housed in carefully selected, professionally managed data centres with layered physical security, resilient power and environmental controls. Access is tightly controlled using three-factor authentication, including biometric identification, supported by 24/7 monitoring, restricted access zones and a complete audit trail.

Guidance

Market abuse and diligence obligations call for demonstrable control of inside information.

Questions

What organisations ask first

No. Use a data room for the live process. Firevault is for the definitive record after it, when the room closes.

To the record they need, yes. Share a document, not the archive: release the specific record a claim, audit or investor request requires, and every retrieval is logged.

For as long as you keep the Vault. Records sit on dedicated hardware in a Firevault Bunker rather than inside a platform with its own retention terms.

With a Vault, request a session at any time, 24/7, from your registered phone, and retrieve the file in File Manager during a session of up to 120 minutes. LUV opens on your nominated access day each week, for 12 hours.

It can help support it. Retrievals are logged, so handling can be demonstrated to counterparties, regulators and investors.
