Bangalore: McAfee today announced the worldwide availability of McAfee Software-as-a-Service(SaaS)Web Protection. This new cloud-based service protects enterprises from malware and other web-borne threats without any on-premise requirements.
The SaaS Web security solution combines the robust enterprise-grade reporting capabilities and features from McAfee solutions with the massively scalable, multi-tenant platform architecture that powered the MX Logic solution. McAfee SaaS Web Protection provides the industry's highest Web protection rates by leveraging the McAfee Global Threat Intelligence network. This network uses millions of threat sensors and more than 350 full-time security experts around the globe.
Marc Olesen, SVP and General Manager, Content and Cloud Security for McAfee said, "McAfee SaaS Web Protection incorporates all of the knowledge and experience we've gathered through the years as well as the unique expertise and technologies gained from our recent acquisitions." Combine that with McAfee Global Threat Intelligence capabilities in the cloud, users will find a better and more effective solution than McAfee SaaS Web Protection, Olesen claimed.
This new cloud-based service from McAfee has several features such as comprehensive reporting, simplified policy enforcement and controls, early protection, rapid deployment and unlimited scalability and remote protection.
