New reporting features include accessible reporting that helps to reduce vulnerability to attacks, simplifying the process of creating the solutions related to McAfee ePO. McAfee Email Protection - can be deployed on-premise, cloud away, and now integrating the two modes with a single management architecture, reducing costs and increasing efficiency, in addition to keeping malware out of the network. The solution also provides a filter for the "", that is all those unsolicited messages that fill the boxese-mail, which improves employee productivity. McAfee Enterprise Security Manager - integrates so active with ePolicy Orchestrator, Network Security Platform and McAfee Vulnerability Manager to automate quarantine, scanning, and making policy - turning information into actionable intelligent action. Real Time for McAfee ePO - recently announced, this new product allows you to make security decisions based on "what is" rather than "what was" interrogating and identifying within seconds each endpoint compromise within a company, to restore it. It is a system which greatly enhances situational awareness and reduces risk exposure and security costs. McAfee Deep Defender - provides protection against rootkits Master Boot Record (). Any driver attempts to write or read an MBR is monitored by Deep Defender, which operates beyond the operating system andIt is enabled by Intel's advanced hardware security. The solution prevents MBR rootkits to modify the master boot record in real time. "According to researchers at McAfee, 59% of enterprise security professionals believes he has been targeted by an advanced persistent threat (, advanced persistent threat)," said, senior analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group.
