Absolute Security today announced it has achieved GovRAMP Authorized Verification. GovRAMP is a nationally recognized security and risk program that provides a standardized approach for state, local, and education (SLED) agencies to procure verified cloud products and service providers. This authorization confirms that Absolute Secure Endpoint meets GovRAMP Moderate impact-level security control requirements, assuring SLED organizations that the solution has met standardized security and risk requirements for public sector use.
SLED security and risk management leaders face a hostile and complex digital environment, where constant threats and security failures frequently lead to costly data breaches and prolonged disruptions to endpoint device infrastructures. With Absolute Secure Endpoint, SLED customers keep their devices and data defended against threats, protected from vulnerabilities, and able to quickly stop downtime caused by cyberattacks, ransomware, and software failures.
“SLED PCs store huge amounts of sensitive information and are used to deliver critical services to sprawling communities. A failed security control or crashed device could lead to a massive data breach and in the case of first responders, even to the loss of life,” said Darren Estridge, SVP, North American Public Sector, Absolute Security. “We help SLED customers keep their critical defensive tools working and to quickly restore continuity after an inevitable cyber incident occurs.”
The world’s top PC OEMs have embedded Absolute Security’s patented innovation into the hardware of more than 600 million endpoint devices. This unique position establishes a persistent and scalable connection that enables constant control and visibility over distributed endpoint device fleets. Public and private sector CISOs leverage Absolute Security to keep their security controls functioning, to freeze and erase data on at-risk devices, and to rapidly restore endpoints to secure, compliant, and operational states after disruptive cyber incidents.
“Achieving GovRAMP Authorized Verification at the Moderate impact level demonstrates Absolute Security’s commitment to meeting the rigorous cybersecurity and risk management standards required by state, local, and education organizations,” said Lah McGrath, executive director of GovRAMP. “This milestone helps streamline procurement and provides public sector organizations with assurance that Absolute Security’s solution aligns with standardized security requirements.”
