Absolute Launches New Mobile App to Enable Customers to Secure At-Risk Endpoints Anytime, Anywhere

▤ Summary

The ability to take immediate action to secure a lost or stolen device is vital in stopping sensitive data from being exposed and putting an entire organization at risk of breach or attack, especially in remote and hybrid work and learning environments. “In the new normal of remote work and distance learning, where potential security risks are increasing and constantly evolving, time is of the essence when it comes to protecting devices and the troves of valuable data stored on them,” said Ameer Karim, Absolute’s Executive Vice President, Product Management. “We designed our mobile app to enable our customers to make every second count and take immediate, decisive action to lock down at-risk endpoints, whether sitting at their desk or on the move.” As an extension of the Absolute console, the mobile app delivers easy access to critical capabilities including: • The ability to identify and lock potentially compromised devices to help ensure sensitive organizational or personal data does not end up in the wrong hands. • The ability to easily view the status of endpoint security controls to confirm they are installed, healthy, and working effectively. Enabling a permanent digital tether between the endpoint and the enterprise who distributed it, Absolute provides IT and Security organizations with complete connectivity, visibility, and control, whether a device is on or off the corporate network, and empowers them with Self-Healing Endpoint security to help ensure mission-critical apps remain healthy and deliver intended value.
