Absolute Software Corp. has added geofencing capabilities to its commercial line of Computrace products. The geofencing feature enables IT asset managers to incorporate the physical location of a device into their IT Asset Management strategy. End-users are alerted after a laptop or mobile device goes beyond a virtual perimeter, which has been defined on a Web-based map. To better protect the device and the data on it, the IT asset manager then can take the appropriate action, such as deleting data from the device and, if necessary, reporting it stolen.
