McAfee Security for Microsoft SharePoint
Keep your SharePoint content server free of viruses and other threats

Features:

Get unrivaled malware detection and cleaning
Prevent SharePoint from becoming a malware vector. Block viruses, worms, Trojans, and other potentially unwanted programs. Stop data theft and prevent damage to your systems before virus signature updates are available.

Ensure only valid business assets are stored in SharePoint
Use preset content management rules to prevent unauthorized or inappropriate documents from being stored on your SharePoint server. Report details about documents that contain sensitive or offensive information.

Lower management costs and increase efficiency
Simplify security management. Centralized and local reporting via the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) platform provides visibility of infections and content policy violations.

Get comprehensive on-access and scheduled scans
Ensure real-time protection when content is accessed and schedule deep scans of all data using the latest malware and content filtering signatures. Opt to limit full repository scans only during scheduled maintenance windows or choose one or more scan targets, including web applications, websites, folders, and specific file types. Reduce overhead by choosing to scan only new files.

Data leak prevention and content scanning
Use prebuilt dictionaries that cover most enterprise- and country-specific compliance rules or customize content filters to keep sensitive data from leaking out of your organization. Create rules on a global basis, with exceptions as needed for individuals and departments. Manage via the built-in HTML interface or the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (McAfee ePO) platform.

Establish rich policy support
Enable preset rules to immediately prevent the spread of inappropriate content, or fine-tune policies with advanced custom rule sets for maximum flexibility.

Enhance quarantine management
Store quarantined documents locally and search the database by infection name, file name, and other parameters.

Centralize reporting
Use the ePO platform to gain visibility of infections and content policy violations. Comprehensive, detailed graphical reports help ensure all SharePoint servers are protected with the latest virus definition files.

Key Features

Advanced antivirus technology

McAfee antivirus technology with McAfee GTI file reputation technology blocks viruses and malicious code threats and offers real-time security using a combination of signature and behavior analysis with community threat intelligence. It drills down to find threats in compressed files with advanced heuristics and generic detection. It even finds and blocks new viruses before they are detected with the latest .DAT signatures.

Real-time and scheduled scans for maximum protection

Continuous protection is yours with defense in depth through real-time on-access scanning and the ability to schedule periodic deep scans of all data using the latest malware and content filtering signatures. Opt to limit full-repository scans only during scheduled maintenance windows, or choose one or more scan targets, including web applications, websites, folders, and specific file types. Reduce overhead by choosing to scan only new files.

Effective content filtering

Apply rules to more than 400 types of documents, including Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft Office. Using the McAfee Security for Microsoft SharePoint software content rules, you can prevent inappropriate or unauthorized content downloads and uploads. Additionally, you can prevent data loss through flexible content filtering and ensure that only valid business assets are stored in SharePoint.

Preset data loss prevention content rules
