Absolute Security

Absolute Security is a cybersecurity company focused on cyber resilience. Its platform combines firmware-embedded technology with cloud-delivered controls to keep endpoints, applications, and network access continuously visible, manageable, and recoverable. The company’s positioning centers on helping organizations reduce downtime, maintain control during disruption, and restore operations quickly after cyber incidents, ransomware, device compromise, or software failure.

Founded in 1993, Absolute Security has evolved from endpoint tracking into a broader resilience platform spanning endpoint security and secure access. Its portfolio now covers device visibility and control, application self-healing, remote recovery, patch and vulnerability remediation, ransomware response, and secure connectivity for hybrid, mobile, and field-based workforces. A core differentiator is Absolute Persistence, which is embedded in the firmware of hundreds of millions of devices and underpins the company’s resilience model.

Offerings, Capabilities, and Integrations

Absolute Security organizes its offerings around two major domains: resilient endpoint operations and resilient secure access. Across those areas, it delivers visibility, policy enforcement, self-healing, automated remediation, remote recovery, secure web access, and contextual access control designed to keep users productive while reducing operational risk.

The company’s capabilities are built to work even when devices are off the corporate network or when local controls have been tampered with. Its platform supports endpoint and application health monitoring, automated patching and workflow-based vulnerability response, ransomware readiness, digital experience monitoring, and Zero Trust-style access to private, cloud, and web applications. Absolute Security also operates through embedded OEM relationships and integrates with cloud and identity ecosystems to extend resilience across distributed environments.
