LAWRENCE, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cobalt Iron Inc. today announced a new partnership with DLT Solutions, a wholly owned subsidiary of Tech Data and a premier government technology solutions aggregator, to represent Compass™, Cobalt Iron’s enterprise software as a service (SaaS) data protection solution. DLT will distribute Compass, inclusive of technical training and support resources, to the public sector with an initial focus on U.S. state and local governments, education (SLED), and healthcare organizations.

The agreement makes DLT the newest member of Cobalt Iron’s all-new IronClad Partner Advantage (IPA) program.
