As the digital landscape expands and evolves, so does the need for effective defense against cyberthreats. At Absolute, we're dedicated to staying ahead of threat actors and disruptive incidents by providing unmatched solutions to safeguard our customers’ digital assets. Today, we're excited to announce a significant milestone in our journey: Absolute Software is now Absolute Security.
Cyber Resilience Defined
Organizations deploy millions of mobile and hybrid devices to enable their global workforces. These PCs are difficult to manage and vulnerable to cyber threats. To better protect digital assets and reduce the risk of disruptions, organizations are increasingly underpinning endpoint and network security with cyber resilience capabilities. Cyber resilience is a paradigm larger and more critical than traditional cybersecurity, as it not only ensures defenses working as intended, but also helps organizations withstand and quickly recover from cyber disruptions and attacks.
Why Absolute is Uniquely Positioned for Cyber Resilience
Our heritage in cybersecurity and vision for the future are firmly aligned with the needs of organizations to not only protect digital assets but also to ensure continuous operation in the face of intensifying threats. This name change reflects more than just a rebrand. It symbolizes our deep commitment and unique capability in ensuring cyber resilience for enterprises across increasingly complex and risky mobile and hybrid work environments.
"For more than 30 years, thousands of global organizations have relied on Absolute to defend millions of employees against advanced threats, ensure quick recovery following cyberattacks, and make sure their security investments are delivering value, said Christy Wyatt," CEO, Absolute Security. "Our new name reaffirms our focus and ongoing commitment to deliver solutions that help global organizations maintain effective security postures while reducing the risk of business disruptions."
The Urgent Need for Cyber Resilience
Supporting our rebranding, we are proud to release the findings from the Absolute Security Cyber Resilience Risk Index 2024. This comprehensive research underscores the urgency and necessity of Cyber Resilience. Key findings reveal significant gaps and challenges that enterprises face. These include the staggering number of organizations unprepared for the AI wave and associated security complications, the failure rates of leading security applications, and results of lagging patch practices.
"As an industry we are intently focused on the inevitable attack coming, breach waiting to happen, and disruption around the next corner. Not enough attention is paid to the simple strategies that can dramatically increase your resilience to ensure you remain resistant to vulnerabilities and can recover quickly. The stakes continue to get higher as we face the urgent need to adopt AI and other innovations to remain competitive," said Christy Wyatt, Absolute Security CEO. "Cyber Resilience is a paradigm that extends beyond traditional cybersecurity. It's about ensuring that your digital operations, which are the heart of your organization, can withstand and quickly recover from cyberattacks, technical malfunctions, deliberate tampering, and new deployments."
