Why You Need Absolute Software – Videos

There are four quick videos on YouTube about Absolute Software’s consumer product line, LoJack for Laptops and corporate product line, Computrace. The videos each go through a common scenario about a missing laptop. This first one examines an all-too-common issue: leaving a laptop in the car.

Whether you’re just running a quick errand or are going to bed for the night, you should never leave your laptop in your car. This practice causes many major data breaches each year. If your corporate laptop does get stolen, you should never be afraid to report that. Letting your IT department know quickly can help recover your laptop, if Computrace was installed, and is important so that steps can be taken to prevent or recover from a data breach.

The second scenario: What happens when your laptop gets stolen from your dorm room?

As you can see in the video, one of the girls was lucky that her father installed LoJack for Laptops on her computer. Although the video was “to be continued”, Absolute Software is able to recover 3 out of 4 missing computers that have its software installed. You can see a recent video interview with Absolute’s CEO John Livingston about LoJack for Laptops here.
