The Risks

If your vendor disappears during a crisis, you could lose access to essential systems code and intellectual property, triggering outages, failed operations, and regulatory exposure when you’re already under pressure.

The Risks

Your disaster recovery plan must address the vendor risks behind it. If they fail, so do you.

No Access When You Need It Most
During a crisis, your software provider may be unreachable, unavailable, or out of business, leaving you locked out of critical systems.
Gaps in Business Continuity
Standard DR plans often ignore supplier-side failure. This blind spot can bring down essential services and delay recovery efforts.
Compliance and Regulatory Fallout
Failure to maintain continuity during an incident can result in audits, fines, or reputational damage, especially in regulated industries.

How We Help

ESCROWSURE ensures your recovery plan works even if your software vendor fails, stalls, or disappears mid-crisis.

Guaranteed Access in Emergencies
You stay operational with uninterrupted access to business-critical software and systems, even if your supplier is not around to support.
Pre-Tested Continuity Readiness
We verify everything upfront, so when a disaster hits, your DR plan activates – no guesswork, no delays.
Compliance-Backed Resilience
Our escrow solutions align with regulatory standards, proving you’ve planned for vendor risk and continuity.

Disaster Recovery That Includes Your Software Vendors

Our services close the gap in your DR strategy by ensuring third-party software doesn’t become a single point of failure.

Made for the Teams Behind Resilience

IT, compliance, procurement, and continuity teams rely on us to safeguard operations when third-party software becomes a point of failure.

CIOs and IT Leaders

You’re responsible for disaster recovery, but your plan doesn’t account for what happens if a key software vendor vanishes during a crisis.

Risk & Compliance Officers

You’re under pressure to prove operational resilience. Supplier-side failure is an audit and reputational risk you can’t afford.

Procurement & Vendor Managers

You manage relationships with software vendors, but lack leverage when a supplier goes silent or support collapses mid-contract. Escrow restores your control.

DR and Business Continuity Teams

You’ve built recovery plans for everything – except your third-party on-premises and SaaS applications. We help you close the gap.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lorem ipsum dolor?

Yes, absolutely. We believe that each escrow environment is unique and requires a customized approach. ESCROWSURE’s in-house legal counsel will craft a bespoke escrow agreement tailoring the provisions to meet the needs of your specific requirements.

What happens if our SaaS provider fails during a disaster?

If your SaaS provider becomes unavailable during a disaster, and you don’t have an escrow solution in place, you could lose access to critical systems and data. This risk can derail your entire disaster recovery plan. ESCROWSURE’s SaaS Escrow service ensure a copy of the code, configuration, and data is held securely under pre-agreed release conditions. If a trigger event occurs (like vendor insolvency or service disruption), we enable access so your business continues operating. This ensures your DR strategy remains executable even if your provider can’t fulfill their role.

Isn’t traditional disaster recovery enough? Why include software escrow?

Traditional DR focuses on internal systems and infrastructure, but often overlooks third-party software risk. Many critical business functions now run on vendor-managed or SaaS platforms. If one of those providers fails during a crisis — whether due to insolvency, acquisition, or cyber incident – your DR plan may offer an insufficient solution. ESCROWSURE fills that gap. We secure access to the IP you rely on but don’t own, making sure your DR strategy accounts for every operational dependency.

Lorem ipsum dolor?

With SaaS applications, software is not accessed on a server located on the end users premises, but instead, is hosted remotely in the cloud by a hosting services provider usually paid for by the software vendor. This introduces an additional layer of risk as it adds to the supply chain dependencies.

In addition, the data generated by the application is hosted in the cloud too. This means that if the software Vendor were to stop answering the phone, both application and data could be beyond the reach of the end user immediately.

Some end users believe that a migration to a cloud service eliminates the need for an escrow arrangement.

But this is not true.

If anything, the need for escrow is greater for SaaS applications, because of the additional layer of risk which puts both the software and the data at risk if the worst should happen.

How does ESCROWSURE integrate with our existing DR plan?

ESCROWSURE complements your DR and business continuity plans by protecting the third-party software layer. We work with your IT and risk teams to identify critical vendor dependencies, configure escrow agreements, and ensure the escrowed materials are complete and verified. This integration means that if a disaster strikes and a software vendor cannot support you, ESCROWSURE activates its release process in line with your DR objectives. It’s seamless, compliant, and designed to slot into your existing risk and continuity frameworks.

What types of IP can be covered under ESCROWSURE?

ESCROWSURE covers a range of on-premise, cloud-based (SaaS) software and technology solutions. For licensed or custom-built systems, we secure source code, build instructions, and related documentation. For SaaS applications, we ensure access or create a verified mirror of your production environment, including code, configuration, and customer-specific data. Our service is platform-agnostic and designed to protect any application that your business depends on – especially those where losing access would impact operations, compliance, or service delivery.
