“Our common platform addresses a wide range of market needs, as we have the unique ability to apply self-healing capabilities to devices, applications, and network access”

A recent 451 Research report validates Absolute’s differentiated platform approach and capabilities, saying: Too often, organizations don’t fully consider the resilience of the deployed zero-trust environment, and network access and device security are handled independently. It’s a situation that complicates security operations and one that can impact employee productivity.

“Our common platform addresses a wide range of market needs, as we have the unique ability to apply self-healing capabilities to devices, applications, and network access,” said John Herrema, EVP of Products and Strategy at Absolute. “Organizations are acknowledging that they need resilience-focused Zero Trust approaches, capable of integrating endpoint and access assessments at every step. By providing the critical components needed to achieve that resiliency – deep visibility, intelligence, and firmware-embedded Persistence – we are enabling them to not only protect devices, data, and users but also ensure critical controls are operating at maximum efficacy.”

New capabilities available to Absolute Secure Endpoint customers in the latest product release include:

• Public API Expansion: The latest Absolute Secure Endpoint release adds new Public APIs to our existing library, allowing customers and partners to integrate our device actions into their existing workflows – significantly improving the efficiency of their existing workflows and enhancing automation capabilities.
