Vice President of Managed Service Providers

Gene Kim is the Vice President of Managed Service Providers at Absolute Security, with a career that spans work as a reseller, value-added solution provider, and MSP before moving into vendor leadership. He is now the public face of Absolute’s push into the MSP ecosystem, focusing on how firmware-anchored endpoint resilience can keep security and management tools running, reduce support overhead, and improve recovery when systems fail. His recent visibility includes conference speaking roles and partner media where he talks about MSP economics, cyber resilience, and the shift from pure prevention to measurable uptime and continuity outcomes.

Absolute Security, founded in 1993 and headquartered in Seattle, has evolved from device tracking and persistence technology into a broader cyber resilience platform embedded in the firmware of hundreds of millions of endpoints. Recent milestones include rebranding as Absolute Security, acquiring Syxsense to strengthen automated endpoint and vulnerability management, and joining the Pax8 marketplace to make its offerings more accessible to MSPs and SMB-focused partners.

Absolute Security Joins Pax8 (EP 1039)

I sit down with Gene Kim from Absolute Security to dig into how their firmware-embedded platform keeps MSP tools installed, self-healing, and recoverable—even when the OS is toast. We also talk about their Pax8 launch, why MSPs matter so much to their strategy, and how this changes the way we think about security, business continuity, and asset management.
