Computrace® | Allows you to activate or disable the BIOS module interface of | |
| the optional Computrace® Service from Absolute® Software. | |
| The Computrace agent from Absolute Software is a service | |
| solution designed to help track assets and provide recovery | |
| services in the event the computer is lost or stolen. The | |
| Computrace agent communicates with the Absolute Software | |
| Monitoring Server at programmed intervals to provide the | |
| tracking service. By activating the service, you consent to the | |
| transmission of information from and to your computer and the | |
| Absolute Software Monitoring Server. The Computrace service | |
| is purchased as an option and the Monitoring Server will enable | |
| its agent security module through an interface provided by | |
| the BIOS. | |
| • | Deactivate: the Computrace module interface is not active. |
| • | Disable: permanently block the Computrace module |
|
| interface. |
| • | Activate: permit the Computrace module interface. |
