Escode, Part of NCC Group

About the Company

Escode, part of NCC Group is the world's largest provider of Software Escrow, IP Escrow and Verification Services.

As market leaders of the Software Escrow category, our story began in 1988 when we identified that businesses were becoming increasingly technology-dependent, but no framework existed to protect those using the software or even the vendors themselves.

Enter the Software Escrow Agreement, which is a tri-party agreement between licensee, the vendor and ourselves that verifies and safeguards the software source code in our vaults for the ultimate protection of your business-critical systems and intellectual property.

If you're a compliance and risk officer, operational manager, IT lead or financial director, you will know that risk management, business continuity planning and compliance in regulatory matters is the absolute foundations of any robust business.

A few questions to ask yourself.....

Does your business rely on apps, automation, CRMs, cloud based applications?
Do your risk and compliance strategies include software asset protection?
If not, how are you protecting your software assets from unexpected disruption and downtime?

If you're still unsure, contact our specialist team who can guide you through this important aspect of business operations and continuity.
