  • Manage data classification and organization
  • Support data governance and compliance requirements

Key Features

  • Category List: View all categories in a table format with key information
  • Category Details: Access detailed information about each category
  • Category Management: Add, edit, and delete categories
  • Data Organization: Organize and classify data using categories
  • Access Control: Manage category-based access to system resources
