How does Absolute help with Gramm-Leach-Bliley (GLB) compliance?
A. Gramm-Leach-Bliley mandates that all companies protect the security and confidentiality of customers’ private information. Absolute’s products add an extra layer of security by establishing who is using a device and where, as well as ensuring that those devices can be located at all times. Under the provisions of Gramm-Leach-Bliley, personal information must be safeguarded at all times. Since businesses store personal information on remote and mobile computers, it is imperative to retrieve any lost or stolen device to ensure that the information contained on them was not used in any malicious manner. Also, theft recovery software helps eradicate any security problems by identifying internal thieves. Recovering stolen machines helps to establish whether any personal information was exposed. Absolute’s Data Delete can help minimize the risk of data being exposed by remotely deleting any sensitive files.
