Absolute Software is beefing up it’s Computrace laptop security solution with the addition of Emergency Remote Data Retrieval features.

Emergency Remote Data Retrieval will allow Absolute clients to retrieve sensitive files on a stolen or lost computer prior to initiating the data delete operation.

John Livingston, Chairman and CEO of Absolute, notes that:

“In providing theft recovery services for more than ten years, we have learned that mobile computers unfortunately go missing when our customers least expect it. Often, these computers contain sensitive information or unique documents that are not saved anywhere else. Ask yourself, how often you back up your own files, and you will get a sense for how often this is the case – particularly for regular business travelers. Delivering the ability to select these files, remotely retrieve them and then delete them from a stolen computer is a major pillar in the ultimate mobile computer management and security system.”

This new feature will add to Absolute’s comprehensive suite of theft deterrents and post-theft mitigation capabilities. It will allow customers to continue working, without the loss of files, while also having the peace of mind from the remote data delete and laptop recovery services.
