McAfee intros endpoint security solution

McAfee announced enhancements to McAfee Total Protection (ToPS) for Endpoint security solution. This release provides updated compliance and security functions, including policy auditing, network access control, rogue system detection, enhanced web security and improved anti-malware technology. The integration of management capabilities between endpoint security and compliance management enables customers to reduce costs, improve visibility, and comply with industry and security policy across their entire infrastructure.
According to VP Paul, Proctor, Gartner, “Companies today realize that they need more than just good security controls, and that they must also address compliance with internal security policies and industry regulations. A combination of good security functions and compliance management improves security operations efficiency and maturity.”
McAfee ToPS for endpoint leverages ePolicy Orchestrator, using a unified web-based platform to simplify management, and lower the cost of managing IT security and compliance. Unlike other vendors who have multiple management consoles for endpoint security and compliance auditing, ToPS for Endpoint Advanced uses a single management platform to provide operational efficiencies and cost savings.

Regulations and standards like Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, Sarbanes-Oxley, Data Protection Act and other data privacy laws require organizations to deploy stronger security to safeguard their data assets. Businesses benefit from stronger security, and are able to reduce costs and streamline security management with an integrated console that helps achieve faster RoI and increased visibility.

"We can demonstrate that a single integrated solution like Total Protection for Endpoint can save companies millions of dollars in operational and security costs. The integration with ePolicy Orchestrator plays a powerful role in reducing these costs," said Vimal Solanki, VP-Solutions Marketing, McAfee.
