McAfee Launches Digital Information Security Initiative

McAfee announced it has unveiled its "Security Connected" initiative, enabling partners, developers and customers to apply a sustainable approach to securing digital information.
McAfee has announced the first two of four new connected security platforms.
1. McAfee Endpoint Security 9
2. McAfee Security Management 5


Security often is being driven from different silos within businesses, from mobile devices, PCs, and tablets, to mission-critical networks, hosted applications, servers, cloud services, virtual machines, and databases, bringing dozens or hundreds of different security technologies and disparate management paradigms with them.

McAfee said its Security Connected components include: -Proactive security through built-in integration and intelligence -Global Threat Intelligence: Threat research and content capability to deliver predictive threat analysis, reputational scoring, cloud delivery and intelligence in depth to power connected security technologies.

-Broad portfolio of countermeasures: Integrated security for PCs, Mac, smartphones, tablets, storage, embedded, silicon, network perimeter, datacenter, web gateways, mail security, content, and so on with a choice of on premise, SaaS, or hybrid delivery models.

-McAfee Connected: program is aimed at helping partners worldwide ensure product and service compatibility with McAfee solutions. The program's testing process ensures that the third-party hardware, software and services that customers choose perform well, and are compatible with, McAfee technology.
