Absolute Control
Retain command of all your endpoints, all the time – even if they’re off your corporate network
Take action to safeguard your devices, applications, and data
Endpoint visibility is important. However, it’s even more crucial to safeguard your devices, applications, and data based on what you’ve learned by gathering the truth across your endpoints. Endpoint control is the next step in your endpoint management and security strategy.
Highlights
Absolute Control™ includes all the capabilities of Visibility™ plus critical endpoint control functions:
Detect unauthorized device movement
Define geofences to detect unauthorized device movement and be alerted when a device crosses an established boundary.
Remotely freeze at-risk devices
Freeze devices when threats have been detected, and notify users with a custom message - automated or on demand.
Remotely delete data
Selectively delete files on any device from anywhere and remotely perform an end-of-life device wipe in accordance with NIST 800-88 with compliance certificate.
Send secure, on-device end user communications
Inform users in a coordinated fashion by displaying important messaging in real-time on their devices’ screen or to solicit feedback even if their device has been compromised or other communication tools have been rendered inoperable.
Streamline missing device reclamation process
Improve missing device return rates by leveraging capabilities like on-device end user communications, device freeze, and geolocation tracking.
Enable firmware protection
Create, remove, or change supervisor password remotely and at scale on specific Lenovo devices.
Safeguard your devices
Earn trust and prove compliance
- Freeze lost or stolen devices. Set geofences and timers to automatically trigger these actions whenever a device leaves a safe area or stops calling in.
-
Selectively wipe data from at-risk endpoints. Perform end-of-life device wipes remotely and generate compliance certificates.
Send secure, on-device end user communications
Reach your end users whenever needed
- Display important messaging on your users’ devices’, preventing unnecessary helpdesk support calls and fragmented communications. Avoid confusion when informing users of an upcoming IT event, providing instructions on how to avoid any imminent ransomware threats, or soliciting feedback through surveys.
- Enable continuous, real-time communication even when other communications tools are offline or have explicitly been rendered inoperable by malware or ransomware.
Enable firmware protection without bringing devices in
Remotely manage supervisor passwords
- Get unprecedented control over your endpoint security configurations — and prevent unauthorized changes to them — by remotely managing supervisor passwords for supported Lenovo devices.
