Absolute Software Corporation is a cybersecurity company focused on endpoint visibility, resilience and control. Its technology helps organizations monitor and manage computers and other connected devices, maintain visibility into endpoint fleets, and support the protection of sensitive data across distributed work environments.
The company’s offerings have included Absolute Secure Endpoint and related solutions for device tracking, inventory management, security-policy enforcement, data protection and incident response. Absolute is also known for its firmware-embedded persistence technology, which is designed to remain active even if a device’s operating system is reinstalled or altered. This capability supports stolen-device recovery, remote data deletion and ongoing endpoint monitoring.
Founded in Canada, Absolute served business, government, education and other institutional customers internationally. The company operated globally through direct sales and channel partners, with its products used to manage endpoints across multiple geographic locations. Christy Wyatt served as chief executive officer during the company’s later years as a public issuer.
In 2023, Absolute Software was acquired by funds managed by Crosspoint Capital Partners and became a privately held company. The company’s shares had previously traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange and in the United States over the counter under the symbol ALSWF.
