How Absolute and CrowdStrike work better together
By combining CrowdStrike's Falcon platform with Absolute's firmware-embedded resilience, organizations gain continuous endpoint protection that remains intact before, during, and after cyber incidents or outages.
Firmware-Embedded Resilience
Absolute Application Resilience delivers an undeletable, self-healing foundation beneath CrowdStrike Falcon on supported Windows and OEM devices, automatically monitoring, repairing, or reinstalling protection for always-on security controls.
Automated Cyber Incident Recovery
Absolute Rehydrate empowers organizations to achieve rapid automated recovery from widespread IT or cyber incidents by remotely restoring affected endpoints and reducing costly downtime.
Protection Above & Below the OS
Absolute delivers persistent endpoint visibility into device health, location, usage, applications, and security posture, while CrowdStrike provides industry-leading threat detection and prevention — together enabling end-to-end resilience.
Stronger Together: A Validated Partnership
Absolute and CrowdStrike are working together to help customers strengthen cyber resilience with automated remediation, unified endpoint posture, and secure recovery after attacks.
A self-healing foundation beneath the CrowdStrike Falcon platform
Absolute strengthens CrowdStrike deployments by providing a firmware-embedded, self-healing connection to every endpoint — no matter where it is. By monitoring the health of the CrowdStrike Falcon agent, detecting drift or tampering, and remediating failures, Absolute ensures endpoint protection controls remain installed, healthy, and continuously enforced, even after failure, tampering, or system disruption.
Recover faster after incidents and outages
When widespread BSOD, IT or cyber incidents strike, Absolute Rehydrate gives IT teams a fast, automated path to restore devices. Using cloud-based playbooks, Rehydrate restores affected devices back to a trusted state without requiring physical access. This ensures workers are back online in minutes, not days, while security and compliance controls stay intact.
Reduce Business Disruption with Built-In Endpoint Resilience
Absolute and CrowdStrike together deliver a layered, resilience-first approach to endpoint security. While Falcon provides industry-leading AI powered threat detection and response, Absolute ensures the underlying device, operating system, and controls remain healthy and recoverable. Organizations gain a unified approach to securing, managing, and restoring endpoints — supporting Zero Trust initiatives while significantly reducing costly downtime across global fleets.
Mapped to the Cyber Resilience Framework
Rather than a simple two-vendor integration, here’s how Absolute and CrowdStrike map to Gartner’s Cyber Resilience Framework: Anticipate, Withstand, Recover, and Adapt. Both companies contribute to every phase, not just the one they lead.

The true cost of downtime and breaches
Downtime is expensive, recovery is often slow, and manual response increases risk. Cyber security resilience depends on automation and recovery at scale. But what do these risks mean for your business?
Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions about automated endpoint recovery and reducing downtime
The partnership combines CrowdStrike’s Falcon platform for real-time breach prevention with Absolute’s firmware-embedded resilience technology. Together, they deliver a powerful solution that ensures endpoints remain secure and operational—even in the face of cyberattacks or application failures.
CrowdStrike Falcon detects and prevents sophisticated threats using advanced machine learning and behavioral analysis. Absolute Resilience continuously monitors the health of critical applications—including Falcon itself—and automatically repairs or reinstalls them if they fail. This guarantees that security controls remain healthy and functioning as intended. Furthermore, Absolute Rehydrate helps organizations recover after a widespread IT or cyber incident by remotely restoring affected endpoints back to a fully trusted and compliant state.
Organizations often face endpoint security gaps, application failures, and downtime after cyber incidents. The integrated solution addresses these by:
- Preventing breaches in real time.
- Ensuring security applications remain persistent and recoverable.
- Automating recovery to minimize disruption and maintain business continuity.
Customers gain:
- Unbreakable resilience: Security apps stay healthy and operational.
- Continuous visibility: Real-time monitoring of endpoint and application health.
- Automated recovery: Rapid restoration of devices and apps after incidents.
- Improved compliance: Self-healing security applications, controls and standardized deployments. These benefits reduce risk, maintain productivity, and ensure uninterrupted protection.
Cyberattacks are more sophisticated than ever, and downtime costs can reach hundreds of billions annually. Even with strong security tools, failures happen. By combining breach prevention with endpoint resilience, CrowdStrike and Absolute help organizations build a foundation of continuous cyber resilience, ensuring defenses remain strong and business operations stay uninterrupted.
