Absolute + HP
Self-healing security starts here. HP and Absolute make your devices secure, compliant, and always under your control.
HP + Absolute: Endpoint Resilience from Day One
For over 14 years, HP and Absolute have partnered to provide always-on security and endpoint resilience.
Absolute is factory-embedded in HP commercial devices, ensuring a persistent connection for IT teams to track, secure, and manage endpoints—even after OS reinstalls or device tampering.
Absolute Persistence® is pre-installed in HP Elite, Pro, and ZBook devices, creating an unbreakable link between endpoints and IT teams for continuous monitoring and security enforcement.
With Absolute, IT teams can remotely track HP devices, enforce compliance policies, and respond to security incidents—whether devices are on or off-network.
Absolute ensures that mission-critical security apps—such as VPNs, encryption, and endpoint protection—stay installed, operational, and protected from tampering.
HP customers can activate Absolute Persistence without manual installation, enabling fast, scalable security enforcement across distributed workforces.
Firmware-Level Security That Can’t Be Removed
Absolute is built into HP devices at the factory, providing a self-healing connection that persists even after OS reinstalls, hard resets, or unauthorized tampering—ensuring uncompromised endpoint security.
Application Resilience for Business-Critical Applications
Absolute Resilience™ continuously monitors HP security applications, automatically repairing or reinstalling compromised software like antivirus, encryption, and Zero Trust solutions to maintain a resilient security stack.
Even if the device gets wiped or someone wipes the BIOS, wherever you plug the hard drive in, it will embed itself back into the firmware, and vice versa. That was the differentiator between Absolute and any other product that is out there.
