Benefits:

Always-On, Real-Time Malware Protection

With the unprecedented growth of advanced persistent threats, enterprises cannot depend on solutions that use only signature analysis for endpoint protection. There’s a gap of 24 to 72 hours from the time a threat is identified to the moment its signature is applied to endpoints. In the meantime, your data and systems are exposed. The built-in McAfee Global Threat Intelligence™ file reputation service closes the gap, providing real-time, always-on protection based on insight gathered by McAfee Labs.

Advanced Email Virus and Spam Protection

Our solution scans your inbound and outbound emails to intercept spam, inappropriate content, and harmful viruses. We can quarantine suspicious emails to prevent evolving email threats from affecting your network and users. And, a layer of antivirus on your email server prevents malware from reaching user inboxes.

Zero-Day and Vulnerability Shielding

Say goodbye to emergency patching. Host intrusion prevention patrols your endpoints against malware, blocks malicious code from hijacking an application, and provides automatically updated signatures that shield laptops and desktops from attack. It’s safe to implement and test patches on your schedule. Combined with our patented behavioral protection, which prevents buffer overflow attacks, you get the most advanced system vulnerability coverage on the market.

Stateful Desktop Firewall

You can control desktop applications that can access the network to stop network-borne attacks and downtime. Deploy and manage firewall policies based on location to deliver complete protection and compliance with regulatory rules.

Efficient Policy Auditing and Compliance

Agent-based policy auditing scans your endpoints and documents to ensure that all policies are up to date. Organizations can measure compliance to best practice policies—ISO 27001 and CoBIT—as well as to key industry regulations.

Comprehensive Device Control

Prevent critical data from leaving your company through USB drives, Apple iPods, Bluetooth devices, recordable CDs, and DVDs. Tools help you monitor and control data transfers from all desktops and laptops—regardless of where users and confidential data go, even when users are not connected to the corporate network.

Proactive Web Security

Help ensure compliance and reduce risk from web surfing by warning users about malicious websites before they visit. Host-based web filtering ensures that you can authorize and block website access, protecting users and ensuring their policy compliance whenever and wherever they are web surfing.

Management that Lowers Operational Costs

For efficiency and comprehensive visibility across your security and compliance status, McAfee® ePolicy Orchestrator® (McAfee ePO™) software provides a single, centralized, platform that manages security, enforces protection, and lowers the cost of security operations. Web-based for easy access anywhere, it provides intelligent security for quick and effective decisions and greater control.

Correlate threats, attacks, and events from endpoint, network, and data security, as well as compliance audits, to improve the relevance and efficiency of security efforts and compliance reports. No other vendor can claim a single integrated management platform across all these security domains. McAfee ePO software simplifies security management.

When Minutes Count, Real Time for McAfee ePO Software Delivers

Real Time for McAfee ePO software uses a scalable peer-to-peer methodology for querying information from all your endpoints in mere moments, with no extra hardware. This allows administrators to assess the security state and health of McAfee defenses whenever they need to. Then, through its unified dashboard and predefined actions, the workflow from diagnosis to mitigated risk takes minutes, not days. This groundbreaking technology dramatically reduces the exposure, risk, and cost of security events, outages, potential breaches, and damaged reputations. Enhance situational awareness and incident response for front-line endpoint administrators using an approach that scales to the largest organizations.
