Description:

Organizations today face a threat landscape that involves stealthy, targeted, and financially motivated attacks that exploit vulnerabilities in endpoint devices. Anti-virus alone is no longer enough protection as attacks are released faster and becoming more complex.

A lack of integration decreases security visibility and increases response time and costs.  Managing multiple security consoles, security products and support contracts result in higher costs than using a single integrated solution Adding standalone products usually isn't the most efficient and cost-effective answer.

McAfee Total Protection for Endpoint provides comprehensive protection from today’s advanced threats in a single integrated solution.  Total Protection for Endpoint is the industry’s first unified platform for endpoint security and compliance management. It delivers strong security for less while simplifying compliance challenges.

We cover all the bases with industrial-strength threat protection for your servers, email servers, and desktops:

  • On-access scanning blocks spyware and other malware from propagating on your systems
  • Automatic threat signature updates shield you from zero-day attacks
  • Advanced inbound and outbound email scanning protects your systems from spam, inappropriate content, and harmful viruses
  • Easy-to-use web security ensures your users are informed and blocked from risky and malicious websites
  • The advanced version of McAfee Total Protection for Endpoint offers network access control capabilities to help you identify, quarantine, and remediate noncompliant, infected, and misconfigured systems
  • Ensure security and regulatory compliance is met on all endpoints with integrated policy auditing in the advanced version of ToPS for Endpoint
  • For an added measure of confidence, our security experts at our global research centers work 24/7, tracking emerging threats and researching cures

It's easy to manage all of these layers of protection with McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator. From one central web-based console, you can enforce policy, monitor your security, make updates, and improve your security visibility with customizable dashboards and detailed graphical reports at any time.
