LAWRENCE, Kan. – April 13, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Cobalt Iron Inc., a leading provider of SaaS-based enterprise data protection, today announced that it has updated its Compass® enterprise SaaS backup platform with new data governance capabilities comprising policy-based controls and an approval framework for decommissioning systems and deleting data.

Compass users can perform these operations in a consistent manner that can be proven to adhere to corporate policies.
