With supply chains becoming increasingly digitized — and increasingly targeted — businesses must take responsibility not only for their internal operations, but for how they collaborate across their entire partner ecosystem. The weak link? Often, it’s how sensitive data is exchanged with third parties.

Managing the supply chain smoothly, effectively and securely isn’t just a productivity dream. It’s becoming a security necessity — especially under NIS2, the EU’s new directive for enhancing cybersecurity across critical and digital infrastructure.

The reality is, many supply chain workflows still rely on unstructured, insecure methods: scattered email threads, unmanaged cloud folders, or informal messaging apps. These not only create inefficiencies — they open the door to human error, data breaches, and regulatory blind spots.

NIS2 mandates stricter requirements for risk management, incident reporting, and third-party security — putting the spotlight squarely on how organizations protect data beyond their own walls.

Secure Data Rooms built for connected supply chains

That’s where Tresorit Engage comes in. A compliant, project-ready solution that offers end-to-end encrypted data rooms for secure, structured collaboration with external partners.

Think of it as a digital vault for your supply chain — where each stakeholder interacts in their own clearly defined space, with strict access controls, audit-proof documentation, and no risk of oversharing.

From procurement and compliance to IT and ESG reporting, teams can:

  • Set up dedicated workspaces for each partner, vendor, or contractor
  • Use templates and task flows to replicate best practices across projects
  • Share files, assign tasks, and request signatures
  • Keep internal data separated and invisible to external parties
  • Build trust by customizing rooms to reflect the company’s and the partner’s branding

Your partners are watching — Set the standard

Securing your supply chain doesn’t stop at your perimeter. The tools and standards you adopt influence how your partners, and their partners, approach data protection.

By inviting partners to collaborate in Tresorit Engage, you not only protect your own operations but also set a clear standard for secure, compliant collaboration. It signals trust, fosters a stronger security culture across your network, and empowers your entire ecosystem to work with greater confidence and integrity.

Real-word use case examples: How different industries collaborate in Data Rooms

In the pharmaceutical sector, managing sensitive production data, audit documentation, and approval workflows is part of day-to-day operations. When such information is shared with external auditors or regulatory bodies, clearly defined access rights and full traceability are essential — especially to comply with EMA (European Medicines Agency) GxP guidelines and EU-level pharmacovigilance standards.

In the chemicals industry, documents like ESG assessments, safety certificates, or supplier declarations often need to be coordinated across different countries, departments, and third-party partners. With regulations such as the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) on the horizon, companies must ensure transparent, audit-proof documentation. A centralised data room with flexible access controls can significantly streamline these compliance-heavy processes.

In the financial sector, regulatory requirements like the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) demand that institutions ensure secure and resilient information sharing across their vendor and partner networks. Banks, insurers, and fintech providers often need to exchange sensitive data such as risk assessments, audit documentation, and incident reports with external partners and regulators. With Tresorit Engage, financial teams can set up dedicated, access-controlled data rooms for each partner, ensuring full traceability, encrypted file exchange, and audit-proof collaboration. This not only streamlines compliance workflows but also strengthens operational resilience across the financial supply chain.
