Absolute joins McAfee Security Innovation Alliance

Absolute Software and McAfee have joined forces to collaborate on an interoperable risk management solution. This solution would integrate Absolute’s flagship theft recovery, remote data delete and IT asset management solution Computrace with McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator.

Absolute Software has joined McAfee as a founding member of the McAfee Security Innovation Alliance, a technology partnering program that speeds the development of interoperable security products towards the “triple promise” of threat protection, risk reduction and compliance management.

The Alliance is taking a role in providing leading products to enterprise consumers in an integrated way - simplifying the complexity of the security environment. John Livingston, Chairman and CEO of Absolute Software, says:

“McAfee is taking a real leadership role in providing enterprise customers with integrated security and management capabilities. Integrating our products with the McAfee ePO management console provides customers with both secure and manageable solutions.”

The McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator allows for the ideal layered approach to computer security we’re always writing about. It will allow companies to access a single user interface to centrally-manage all of their security and compliance products from those ‘best of’ partners in the Alliance. Altogether, companies can access solid data breach protection by using Alliance products and the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator.
