The brand offers a large number of external applications for data protection in other environments, it would be ideal to group all these platforms in a single interface and its cost would be consolidated in a single platform that groups all these benefits instead of offering them individually, surely for Others might find this way of working useful because they can choose the services they want to use, but I think that all these services are useful and could be grouped under a single interface.
