McAfee Total Protection: More businesses rely on McAfee for complete system security

White Paper Published By: McAfee Inc

McAfee Total Protection(ToPS) solutions provide complete system security protection with simplified, centralized management through McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO). During the current economic downturn, some security organizations are finding themselves pressured to use "free" or "budget" solutions. While the upfront costs may look appealing, added operational costs due to poor security management eat up those savings very quickly. Streamlined management and flexi-bility afforded by McAfee ePO results in a lower total cost of ownership.

Business Brief
McAfee Total ProtectionMore businesses rely on McAfee for complete system security
® TMcAfee Total Protection(ToPS ) solutions provide complete system security protection ®with simplified, centralized management through McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator T(ePO ). During the current economic downturn, some security organizations are finding themselves pressured to use "free" or "budget" solutions. While the upfront costs may look appealing, added operational costs due to poor security management eat up those savings very quickly. Streamlined management and flexi-bility afforded by McAfee ePO results in a lower total cost of ownership.
Advanced protection against the unknownHackers never rest. Or so it may seem when looking at the massive amounts of malware that run amok on the Internet. Advanced protection technologies are required to keep the onslaught of malware at bay, and McAfee Total Protection for Endpoint rises to the occasion with award-winning anti-malware protection, full-featured host-intrusion prevention (HIPS), desktop firewall, web-reputation services, and more.Low-budget solutions often provide basic anti-virus, anti-spam, and sometimes host intrusion prevention (HIPS) technology but are lacking the more advanced features provided by McAfee. While timely virus definition updates are now the norm, they lack the real-time analysis of suspicious files that our ®solutions provide with McAfee Artemis technology, which is built into our anti-malware technology. Buffer-overflow protection is also a component of our basic anti-malware technology and is included in McAfee Host Intrusion Prevention. This allows for zero-day protection regardless of what level of protection is placed on a system and reduces patching costs by providing protection for newly discovered vulnerabilities.
Smart, simple, secure solutionsFor customers looking to reduce onsite infrastructure and deployment costs, McAfee Total Protection Service provides comprehensive security-as-a-service (SaaS) with both endpoint and email protection. We've simplified security management with quick online installations and anytime access to our web-®based console, the McAfee SecurityCenter. With built-in transparent Rumor technology, Total Protection Service provides automatic, peer-to-peer updates and upgrades to all users in a network to decrease bandwidth impact and to provide continuous security against the latest threats.
Build an expandable security foundation on premise or onlineCentralized management and integrated capabilities make it easy and cost effective for organizations to ensure consistent protection across their business infrastructure. On-premise security management with ePolicy Orchestrator or online management with the SecurityCenter allow for the easy integration of existing and new products. While many budget solutions provide a web-based console for managing server and desktop agents, the protection usually stops there. Customers who want to add encryption, data loss protection or even Apple Macintosh protection often end up acquiring point products from multiple vendors with multiple management platforms. McAfee is the only vendor that provides organizations with the ability to reduce costs and improve security operations with a single management platform that can administer endpoint security, data protection, and risk and compliance.

Technology McAfee Key Benefits
McAfee Artemis The amount of malware created in 2008 exceeds the combined amount created in 2006 and 2007. technology Traditional "signature-based" protection can't keep up. Artemis technology provides behavioral techniques ®with real-time threat intelligence gathered from McAfee Avert Labs and the security community at large. With Artemis, companies benefit from: . Reduction in the protection gap from hours, or even days, to milliseconds . Higher detection rate by leveraging collective threat intelligence within the advanced learning repository. A combination of the best of anti-malware blacklist and whitelist models. Seamless enablement through ePO or the SecurityCenter
Buffer overflow Buffer overflows are a favored method of exploiting security vulnerabilities. Here's how McAfee Total protection Protection solutions protect your organization against this type of threat:. "Zero-day" exploits are prevented without the need for signature updates. McAfee...
