From IT Failure to Ransomware: Downtime Costs Millions




The problem
When an incident hits, the clock isn’t just ticking—your business is bleeding. Lateral movement accelerates, systems freeze, customers are impacted, and every minute of outage compounds financial & operational damage.
Most organizations rely on manual recovery steps. This leaves teams blind, controls offline, and operations at a standstill. Downtime doesn’t wait. Recovery shouldn’t either.
Rapid endpoint recovery matters
The numbers don't lie—and they’re getting worse. When incidents strike, the losses are immediate—and staggering. The following stats reveal just how high the stakes are.
Your disaster recovery strategy means nothing, unless you can control endpoint recovery securely. The alternative is a painstaking slog to manually restore each device individually, to ensure it doesn’t bring the whole network down again
Cybercrime and software failures cause disruptions that cost organizations more than a trillion dollars in losses annually.

Incident response & endpoint recovery FAQ
復旧が加速するのは、前提条件そのものを変えるからです。単に事後対応するのではなく、このソリューションはすべてのendpointに対して永続的でself-healingな接続を提供します。これにより、重要なアクションを数か月ではなく数分で実行できます。たとえば、失敗したpatchのロールバック、ランサムウェア感染デバイスの復元、またはデータ侵害を防ぐための紛失endpointのリモートwipeなどです。
従来のツールは、agentが無効化されたり接続を失ったりすると機能しなくなり、危機の最中に企業が何も見えない状態に陥ることがあります。このplatformは、継続的かつ削除不可能な接続を確保し、常にアクセスと制御を保証します。重要なのは、まさに必要なときの確実性とresilienceです。さまざまなWindows PCに対応しているため、混在したplatform環境を持つエンタープライズ組織にとって特に有効です。さらに、Rehydrateでは、Windowsのフルreimageだけでなく、ファイルの追加・削除、registryの変更、scriptの実行といった、より細かなアクションも、すべてoperating system層の下から実行できます。
導入は非常に迅速です。多くのエンタープライズ向けデバイスにすでに存在する、ファームウェア組み込み型technologyを活用するためです。複雑なインフラは不要で、多くの組織は数か月ではなく数日で全フリートに展開し、価値を実感できます。より早い成果とresilienceの実現につながります。
Absoluteは、継続的なendpoint security、コンプライアンス適用、リアルタイムのリスク軽減を必要とする企業、政府機関、教育機関を支援しています。
はい。グローバル規模を前提に構築されており、数千台から数十万台規模のフリートでも、性能低下なく対応できます。リアルタイムの可視性と制御は、組織の規模や所在地に関係なく、全体にわたって拡張されます。
