Folders sent to outsourcing, what do I do with them when the work is done?

Approximately 4 minutes to read BlueCanvas

What should I decide first when handing over data to an outsourcer?

The first thing to do is to decide in a sentence what the material will be used for and what to do with it once it is finished. Copy that sentence into the confidential information scope and data return/disposal sections of the security pledge.

Key takeaways

  • The folder to be handed over to an outsourcer has been decided, but there is usually only verbal communication about how much of it can be viewed, what it will be used for, and what to do with it once it is finished.
  • Just decide on two sentences before sending. What will the material be used for and what will be done with it when it is finished? Just copy and write that sentence into the security pledge space.
  • Reducing data and revoking account privileges must be done separately.

I decided on the file to send, but not the conditions.

Compress the folder to be handed over to the outsourced developer. Contains source repository access information, customer lists, design drawings, and administrator account notes. What to send remains a file list.

But what should be next to it is empty. How far you can see, what you decide to spend it on, and what you will do with it when it is over.no see. These three things are usually exchanged once in a phone call or messenger and are not left in writing.

The folder names and file names on the screen are examples for reproduction purposes only and are not actual customer data.

Two sentences to decide before sending

Rather than opening the form first, the sentences to be decided come first. Two is enough.

questionI write it like this
What is the material for?I am only using this payment module development.
What do you do when it's over?We will clear and reply within 7 days after delivery.

Once you have these two sentences, all that remains is to transcribe the rest. The first sentence of the pledge is 「Scope of confidential information」 By Khan, the second sentence is 「Return and disposal of materials」 Go to the provisions.

The form leaves the promise on one page.

The BLUE FORM security pledge provided by BlueCanvas for free is 10 spaces to fillAnd there are 3 steps. If you enter a value in the left field, the document on the right will be filled as is, and there is no membership registration or payment required. There is “Project Participation” in the category box, so I write outsourcing and freelance as that category.

The six provisions of the pledge (scope of confidential information, matters to be observed during employment, obligations after retirement, return and disposal of data, handling of personal information, responsibility in case of violation) are already written in the text, so there is no need to memorize them.

If the scope is wide, it will be difficult to keep it.

The section to be most careful is “Scope of Confidential Information.” 「All company information and all matters learned during work」If you write it down broadly, it won't be clear what the secret is, making it difficult to fight later.

Please write down the name of the material you actually manage. Write down things like customer lists, transaction price tables, product design drawings, and source code repositories. There is an example in advance in that section of the screen, so you can just copy it.

Even if you receive one copy, your data will not be protected.

Let me make something clear.

What we need to do togetherdetail
Minimize dataMaterials that do not need to be sent are excluded from the beginning. Send only the columns you need to work with instead of the entire roster, and send values ​​for testing purposes instead of actual values.
revoke privilegesAuthority is cut from the account, not from the pledge. When you're finished, reclaim access to the repository and admin screen and close the sharing link.
Classification of documentsA security pledge is written for individuals, and a confidentiality agreement is written between companies.

Even if a pledge has been signed, the materials will remain open as long as access remains. These are two separate things.

What to do today

If you have a folder you want to send, write two sentences before zipping it. What will the material be used for and what will be done with it when it is finished. You can finish organizing for the day by copying the sentences you have decided into the pledge box and removing files that do not need to be sent from the folder.

This is BlueCanvas’ free forms and tools. The security pledge can be filled out directly in the BLUE FORM.

The file has been set, but the conditions have not been set.

I am compressing a folder to be sent to an outsourcing company. What do you plan to do with these files when you're finished? If you have never decided, it is better to decide now.

I leave my verbal promise in one piece.

The security pledge leaves that promise on one page. If you put it in the left field, the pledge on the right will be filled in as is. There are 10 slots and there is no membership registration or payment.

The scope of confidential information is not broad.

The most important column is the scope of confidential information. If you write it down broadly, it becomes more difficult to keep it. There is a pre-filled example in that box.

Even if you receive one copy, your data will not be protected.

However, this one sheet does not protect the data. Exclude material that does not need to be sent, and separate account permissions. If the other party is a company, a confidentiality agreement is written.

Just decide two things before sending:

Before sending a file, decide two things: What will the material be used for and what will be done with it when it is finished. Just write down what you have decided in the pledge box.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my data be protected if I receive a security pledge?

no. A pledge documents what you have promised, but blocking access is another thing. You must remove any material that does not need to be sent, and revoke account permissions after the work is completed.

Do individual outsourcing and companies use the same documents?

It's different. A security pledge is obtained from individuals, and a confidentiality agreement is written between the company and the company. This is because the parties to the contract and their liability structures are different.

Wouldn’t it be safer to write down the scope of confidential information broadly?

That's not true. If you write something like “all company information,” it will not be clear what is secret, making it difficult to fight later. It is better to write down the name of the data you actually manage.
