Nonstop Laptop Guardian

Alcatel-Lucent’s OmniAccess 3500 Nonstop Laptop Guardian (NLG), invented by Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs and commercialized by Alcatel-Lucent Ventures, offers enterprises unprecedented visibility, control and security for remote laptops regardless of power status. Nonstop Laptop Guardian is a 3G-based PCMCIA card with its own battery, memory, processor, OS, and software – a “mini computer” operating within the laptop. In case of theft, IT departments can back up and delete laptop data, dramatically reducing company risk and liability, while also offering simplified and speedy routine upgrades and backups by allowing IT departments unassisted 24x7 access to remote laptops.

According to Michel Emelianoff, Vice President for Alcatel-Lucent’s Enterprise security solutions at Alcatel-Lucent, “The OmniAccess 3500 NLG leverages 3G networks to allow enterprises to overcome the ‘mobile blind spot’ by managing their laptops anywhere, any time, even when the laptop is turned off. Secure, always-on, fully-integrated third party applications and features offer enterprises a choice of best-of-breed solutions along with visibility and control.”
