Case Study: Las Vegas Valley Water District achieves faster theft recovery and improved data security with Absolute Software

Las Vegas Valley Water District saves time, money, and stress with Absolute

Las Vegas Valley Water District, a not-for-profit agency supplying water to over 1 million Southern Nevada residents, manages a fleet of more than 1,000 laptops used by 1,400 full‑time and 500+ temporary staff. With up to 700 devices operating in the field, the IT team struggled with frequent theft, poor recovery rates, and the risk of sensitive data leaving the organization when temporary workers or contractors departed.

The District deployed Absolute’s endpoint security to gain remote visibility and control: reporting thefts quickly to Absolute Investigations, using Data Delete to wipe devices when necessary, and tracking device usage for policy compliance. The solution cut investigation time, deterred internal theft, improved data‑security posture and regulatory confidence, and saved the IT team significant time, money, and stress.
