McAfee announces new enterprise security portfolio

McAfee has recently announced McAfee MVISION, a portfolio featuring new McAfee innovations designed to give customers a defence system that manages their security products based on their needs today and in the future as they continue to move to modern device operating systems and to the cloud. McAfee claims that MVISION strengthens the device as a control point in security architectures by delivering simplified management, stronger Windows security, behaviour analytics, and threat defence for Android and iOS devices. Plus, with its single integrated management workspace, MVISION assists enterprise security professionals to proactively manage, optimize, and integrate security controls across any combination of McAfee advanced protection and Windows 10 native capabilities.

The new McAfee MVISION portfolio includes McAfee MVISION ePO, McAfee MVISION Endpoint, and McAfee MVISION Mobile.

McAfee MVISION ePO is a SaaS service that offers a centralized point of view and comprehension. It removes the deployment and maintenance overhead of backend infrastructure and allows customers to migrate their existing ePO environment. Organizations can focus on reducing security risk with the agility of the cloud ensuring they are always running the latest security capabilities. In addition to the new MVISION ePO SaaS offering, ePO has been updated to enable security teams to understand threat risks, ensure security compliance, and act faster with less effort than ever before.

New task-oriented security workspace: Designed with optimization and situational awareness in mind – allowing administrators to clearly see their security posture, and complete tasks with 50 per cent fewer clicks. The new security workspace integrates defences across devices, operating systems, McAfee products, and third-party technologies to visualize threats and immediately pivot into action.

Private ePO deployed in Amazon Web Services (AWS): Eliminates the need for a separate database and physical assets, and provides customised control of the management infrastructure and configuration data. An ePO AWS Quick Start enables organizations to be up and running in less than 1 hour.

McAfee MVISION Endpoint manages and extends the native security built into Windows 10 to deliver a broader collective defence with less effort than other approaches in the market today. McAfee claims that by utilizing a lightweight agent, McAfee MVISION Endpoint complements the Windows 10 built-in security with specifically tuned advanced threat protection. This cooperative approach is managed through McAfee MVISION ePO to defend against both sophisticated file-less and file-based attacks without the complexity of multiple management systems.

McAfee MVISION Mobile provides visibility and threat defence for iOS and Android devices to ensure they are safeguarded just like any other device. McAfee MVISION Mobile provides always-on protection no matter how a device is connected. By analyzing deviations to device behaviour, McAfee MVISION Mobile makes determinations about indicators of compromise to accurately identify the advanced device, application, and network-based attacks. Visibility and control of mobile assets are now combined through McAfee MVISION ePO to provide a single console to manage security across devices.

The McAfee MVISION will be released in August 2018.
