Federal agency chooses Computrace

In addition to the Kent SD case study highlighted here last week, Absolute Software is profiling how a US Federal Government Agency uses Computrace to protect their assets.

In 2006, a Federal agency realized that its higher profile meant that they needed to increase existing data and computer security measures. Government regulations require that data breaches be reported with, and dealt with, quickly. With these two considerations in mind, the agency began a pilot project in 2007 with 3,500 computers. After the success of the pilot project, they purchased 30,000 licenses of Computrace to protect their entire laptop population.

The agency can now inventory computers in the field, report on installed software, and delete classified data if computers go missing. For more information about Computrace, read here.
