Rehydrate, now available in the Absolute Secure Endpoint solution, offers a single-click, remote restoration process for Windows 10 and 11 devices. This capability is critical for organizations facing ransomware, malware, or system crashes. Unlike traditional recovery methods, Rehydrate operates at the firmware level, functioning even when the operating system or security tools are compromised. This ensures businesses can maintain operations without significant disruptions, addressing the trillion-dollar annual cost of cybercrime and software failures.
The Absolute Resilience Platform, integrated into devices from 28 leading manufacturers, enables Rehydrate to scale across enterprise device fleets. IT and security teams can deploy recovery playbooks ranging from targeted remediations to full OS recovery, all managed through the Absolute Security console. This seamless delivery minimizes the burden on IT staff, allowing rapid restoration of remote, hybrid, and mobile devices without requiring physical returns to IT facilities.
Rehydrate not only restores devices but also automates the reinstallation of critical security controls, ensuring compliance and protection against threats. Its integration with the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) enhances device authentication, aligning with modern security standards. This feature is vital for safeguarding sensitive data across on-premises, cloud, and device environments, supporting proactive disaster recovery planning.
With support for both WiFi and Ethernet, Rehydrate caters to remote, hybrid, and mobile employees. This flexibility eliminates the need for devices to be sent to IT for repair, enabling rapid restoration from anywhere. As organizations increasingly adopt distributed work models, this feature ensures operational continuity regardless of employee location.
"In the event of ransomware, malware, or system crashes, Absolute Rehydrate enables our company to quickly return devices to a trusted state. This rapid recovery mechanism is crucial for maintaining business continuity and minimizing the impact of cyber incidents. It also supports proactive disaster recovery planning, ensuring that endpoint restoration is not dependent on a functioning OS or network tools," said a Global Enterprise Technology Industry Customer.
“Cybercrime and software failures cause disruptions that cost organizations more than a trillion dollars in losses annually,” said Jarad Carleton, Global Market Research Director for Cybersecurity, Frost & Sullivan. “CISOs are increasingly being called on to help ensure their organizations can achieve the level of resilience needed to quickly restore their operations before downtime creates a financial catastrophe. Forward-thinking leaders are adopting solutions and strategies that prioritize operational continuity into every layer of their digital infrastructure—from the endpoint to the cloud.”
Absolute Security’s Rehydrate sets a new standard for cyber resilience, enabling organizations to recover swiftly from disruptions. By leveraging firmware-level integration and automated processes, it empowers businesses to minimize downtime, reduce costs, and maintain secure, compliant operations in an increasingly volatile digital landscape.
