Security & <strong>Management</strong> for Mobile Computers<br />
Absolute ® Software is a world leader in the security and management of mobile computers. Our patented firmware-based<br />
software enables computer theft recovery, data protection and <strong>IT</strong> asset management delivered on a subscription basis.<br />
What Absolute Can Do for You<br />
• Guaranteed recovery of missing computers 1<br />
• <strong>IT</strong> asset management - on or off the LAN<br />
• <strong>Asset</strong> discovery<br />
• <strong>Data</strong> protection with remote data delete<br />
• <strong>Theft</strong> deterrence<br />
• Post-theft forensics<br />
Encryption Is Not Enough<br />
Complement encryption for added security. Because encryption<br />
alone has vulnerabilities:<br />
• Relies on user action<br />
• Employees write down encryption keys<br />
• May be circumvented by determined hackers<br />
• Does not physically recover computers<br />
• Does not provide asset management<br />
• You need a layered approach to security<br />
Security - Built In<br />
Absolute partners with leading computer manufacturers to build in<br />
a portion of its software at the factory. 2 Since it’s embedded in the<br />
firmware, it’s extremely tamper-resistant. And it features a selfhealing<br />
ability, even if the hard drive is completely reformatted or<br />
replaced.<br />
The Absolute <strong>Theft</strong> <strong>Recovery</strong> Team uses a suite of recovery tools, such as geolocation<br />
tracking, to recover 3 out of 4 missing laptops protected by Absolute products. 3<br />
