SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Micro Focus (LSE: MCRO; NYSE: MFGP) today announced the general availability of Micro Focus File Governance Suite, helping customers archive and recover high-value targets faster than traditional backup systems, and assisting with government and privacy mandates, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
