In a recent survey of HIMSS members, 75% identified secure configuration and deployment as the number one iPad IT management challenge. To meet the challenge, Absolute Software has released Absolute Manage 6.0 with a built-in app, named AbsoluteSafe, for health care organizations.

Absolute Manage offers a unified console that enables IT administrators to efficiently manage all of their Mac, PC, Android, and iOS devices by automating time-consuming IT processes such as software distribution, patch management, and asset inventory. Additionally, it can help organizations save money by allowing them to track installed applications and licenses, redeploy under-used licenses and hardware to maximize inventory utilization and avoid non-compliance fines, and implement power management policies to reduce energy consumption.

The AbsoluteSafe app can give users access to sensitive patient and organization information without allowing them to e-mail it, take a screenshot, or view the information outside of a certain location or time period. The AbsoluteSafe app also cuts down the risk of a health care data breach since the information cannot be passed on or removed from the device.
