McAfee Endpoint Protection Suite

Essential protection for your endpoints

Next Steps:

Overview

McAfee Endpoint Protection Suite offers essential protection in an integrated solution that secures Windows systems against malware and unauthorized devices. Providing device control and critical email and web protection, Endpoint Protection Suite is an ideal way to safeguard traditional desktops and fixed systems that have limited exposure to Internet threats.

Endpoint Protection Suite includes:

Real-time anti-malware and antivirus protection — Block viruses, Trojans, worms, adware, spyware, and other potentially unwanted programs that steal confidential data and sabotage user productivity on PC and Unix systems.

Proactive email and web security — Intercept malware and spam before it reaches inboxes. Built-in McAfee SiteAdvisor Enterprise Plus warns users about malicious websites before they click and allows administrators to authorize or block website access, ensuring compliance.

Desktop firewall — Control desktop applications that can access the network, and stop network-borne attacks and downtime. Deploy and manage firewall policies based on location to deliver complete protection and compliance with regulations.

Comprehensive device control — Monitor and restrict data copied to removable storage devices and media to keep it from leaving company control.

Unrivaled centralized management — The McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) platform provides instant visibility into your overall security status and specific events, enabling unified control of all your security and compliance tools.

Match your endpoint protection needs with the right McAfee security suite
