Iron
Mountain Incorporated (NYSE: IRM), the information storage and
management company, has added two new service markets in Madison, Wis.

Datastore and Data Technology Services (DTS). These acquisitions give
the company an in-market presence for providing document storage,

“We welcome the customers of Datastore and DTS and are committed to
providing them the highest level of service for their storage and
information needs,” said
Harold Ebbighausen

invested capital.”
