Security provider Absolute Software has announced that it has partnered with Trellix to allow joint customers to utilise Absolute’s firmware-embedded connection to further enhance Trellix’s endpoint solution.
As part of the agreement, it is expected that Absolute Resilience customers would be able to extend Absolute Persistence to Trellix Endpoint Security.
Absolute’s Persistence capability is used in over 600 million endpoints to ensure ongoing resilience for the device via an undeletable tether. The tether is then leveraged by Absolute Application Resilience to oversee the health of security applications and to monitor for any potential issues.
Meanwhile, Trellix Endpoint Security provides protection to its clients through machine learning and is part of a suite of solutions that applies proactive threat intelligence and defences to protect customers through an attack’s lifecycle.
“Our unique intelligence shows that today’s complex and widely distributed device environments have put endpoint agents at constant risk of colliding with other applications, or being disabled by malicious or negligent users,” Edward Choi, SVP of Global Alliances at Absolute Software, said.
“By joining our Application Resilience ecosystem, Trellix is taking the critical steps needed to enable our joint customers to harden their mission-critical endpoint application and strengthen their overall endpoint security posture.”
Britt Norwood, senior vice president, global channels and commercial at Trellix, welcomed the opportunity to partner with Absolute, explaining that the partnership will improve security solutions for their clients.
“We are proud to collaborate with leading software vendors to improve security outcomes for our customers,” Norwood said.
“Organisations across the globe rely on Trellix every day to protect, and adapt to, their changing business needs in a dynamic threat landscape. We’re thrilled to see Absolute Software support Trellix ENS in its Application Resilience ecosystem and extend this value to our joint customers.”
