Software audits are always a challenge for the companies concerned, because they tie up valuable resources and, in case of doubt, can result in considerable costs. In addition to technical details and a clear communication strategy, the right legal aspects must be taken into account in audit situations. In this audit debate, we will exchange views on the legal options available to license management to successfully fend off audits. Discuss in small groups what to do when an audit letter comes, how to prepare the company, how to delay audits? What options are there to thwart audits in advance (for example, by using NDAs or audit clauses to limit the number and frequency of audits).
