All This with the Power of Real Time for McAfee ePO

With existing security management toolsets, complex infrastructures with hundreds of servers, and thousands of endpoints, you can’t afford to wait hours or days to collect endpoint data and then days or weeks more to remediate through traditional policy enforcement tools. Real Time for McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (McAfee ePO) is the first and only solution that allows enterprises to query assets in seconds, identify potential issues, and mitigate risk in seconds rather than days. This groundbreaking technology dramatically reduces exposure risk and cost of security events, outages, breach potential, and damage to reputation.
