Secure Access Cyber Resilience Ransomware Data Visibility & Protection

Going Beyond Traditional SSE: Comprehensive, Compliant, SSE with Safe Connect

November 12, 2024

3 Min Read

In today’s rapidly evolving security landscape, enterprises need more than conventional Security Service Edge (SSE) to safeguard their modern workforce from advanced threats and data exfiltration. They need resilience to withstand cyber threats and ensure operational continuity. They also need to combat the speed of sophisticated threat proliferation that frequently targets endpoints, and to bolster cybersecurity staff shortages with AI-powered security controls.

That's why we're introducing Absolute Secure Access Enterprise, the only comprehensive, AI-powered SSE solution that adds Safe Connect and Compliance for always-on secure access to private applications, cloud services, and websites. Using Zero Trust principles, our cloud-native SSE is managed from a converged, single console, delivering an optimized and productive user experience for the remote and hybrid workforce.

But what makes Absolute SSE stand out from the traditional SSE crowd is our firmware-backed embedded resilience and endpoint compliance.

  • Resilience ensures an always-on, undeletable, and fully operational SSE that’s self-healing for better user productivity and protection.
  • Endpoint compliance reduces the attack surface with a Comply-to-Connect (C2C) framework, providing endpoint security controls to protect against device risks and compliance, assuring optimal protection and maximum productivity.

Absolute Secure Access Enterprise also offers multi-faceted protection from web-based threats like zero-day attacks, malware, and malicious code. It also prevents data loss and leakage and includes AI-powered threat insights to detect and mitigate suspicious users, devices, network, and application behavior—safeguarding workers and organizations that are increasingly at risk from an ever-evolving threat landscape.

Unmatched Resilience

As a leader in enterprise cyber resilience, Absolute Security provides automated self-healing of your Secure Access Enterprise deployment to maintain protection against risks, ensuring consistent security and operational capacity. We are the only resilient, endpoint-compliant and comprehensive SSE solution for the always on, always connected, and always protected hybrid workforce.

Unmatched Compliance

Absolute Security’s mature Secure Endpoint technology now gives security administrators unprecedented control over endpoints. Leveraging C2C, Absolute Compliance Module is included to keep security controls and connectivity in place even under adverse conditions. This feature ensures deep endpoint visibility and security posture compliance across remote and hybrid devices accessing corporate networks and assets.

With C2C, key benefits include:

  • Report and alert on hundreds of hardware attributes
  • Locate devices and define geofences to detect unauthorized device movement
  • Flag missing devices and be alerted when they connect to the internet
  • Assess security posture, including Anti-Malware and Encryption status, and monitor the health of other mission-critical applications
  • Freeze a device on-demand with a custom message
  • Strengthen your Absolute Secure Access deployment through self-healing

Leverage UEBA and ML/AI to Secure Hybrid Workforces

The solution offers optimized secure access with dynamic policy enforcement based on device posture, network conditions, and other factors. With AI-powered Threat Insights and User Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA), it continuously monitors user, device, and application activities, detecting potential threats and suspicious behaviors before they become significant security incidents.

Holistic Threat Protection Inside and Outside the Tunnel

Absolute Secure Access Enterprise provides multi-faceted threat defense, ensuring comprehensive security for all traffic to and from each device, including traffic that is secured in its optimized tunnel or routed directly to the Internet. SWG delivers advanced web protection, including zero-day threats, malicious code, and ransomware attacks. Additionally, DLP protects sensitive data from being exfiltrated, and RBI shields users from browser-based risks. Finally, CDR scans and sanitizes hidden malware and executables from files such as PDFs to keep the organization safe while allowing users to be productive and collaborative.

Unmatched Digital Experience Monitoring and Insights

Absolute Secure Access Enterprise offers over 70+ dashboards with analytics on user, device, network, and application behavior, coupled with a 90-day data retention period. It offers Digital Experience Monitoring (DEM) capabilities, including:

  • Network performance tracking
  • Inventory management
  • Telemetry for device and app health
  • Diagnostics for out-of-tunnel traffic

These insights enable IT teams to proactively troubleshoot, resolve issues, optimize network performance, and maintain a strong security posture.

Why Absolute Secure Access Enterprise is Different

While other solutions offer standard SSE, only Absolute Secure Access Enterprise includes built-in cyber resilience to ensure always-on, persistent connections, continuous policy and endpoint compliance. It delivers deep visibility, granular control, and comprehensive security across all access points, from endpoint to cloud.
