Absolute Software announced the continued expansion of its Absolute Application Resilience? ecosystem. Joint customers can now leverage Absolute?s firmware-embedded Persistence® technology to strengthen the resiliency of more than 80 mission-critical security and business tools.

Recent additions include NetSfere®, ActivTrak? Agent, HP TechPulse, Dell SupportAssist, Symantec Management Agent, BUFFERZONE® Safe Workspace®, Octopus Pro, and Syxsense® Responder. With cyber risk and disruption escalating at an alarming rate, there is a critical need for resilient security controls that can effectively protect an organization?s most vulnerable assets: users, devices, and data.

Maintaining application integrity and security compliance across widely distributed fleets, however, is fraught with complexities and challenges. Absolute's 2023 Resilience Index found that seven of 10 common security applications analyzed were working effectively on less than 80 percent of the devices they were installed on ? and in some cases, as low as 47 percent.

In contrast, when self-healing capabilities via Absolute Application Resilience were enabled, application health and efficacy rates across these same vendors increased as much as 52 percentage points. As a result of accelerating demand, Absolute has seen a 79 percent increase over the last 18 months in the number of customers leveraging Application Resilience to both monitor the health of mission-critical applications and autonomously repair or reinstall them when needed.
