Business Wire
McAfee, Inc. (NYSE:MFE), today announced the general
availability of the McAfee® Enterprise Mobility Management (McAfee®
EMM™) 9.5 software. McAfee EMM software now includes integration
with the McAfee® ePolicy Orchestrator® (McAfee ePO™) platform,
providing customers with unified management of their endpoint,
network and data security products. The end-to-end visibility and
control provided by the McAfee ePO platform will help IT
administrators dramatically strengthen their protection and drive
down the cost and complexity of managing their risk and
security.
Additional Key New Features and Benefits of McAfee EMM 9.5
Software Include:
- Enterprise App Store— Businesses
can now offer recommended applications through a secure enterprise
app store, while maintaining complete visibility into the
applications that reside on these employee-owned devices
- Enhanced iOS4 Support
– McAfee EMM software features a full API set for mobile
device management, allowing IT administrators the ability to create
a list of recommended applications-based parameters such as the
user and their roles and responsibilities, and sub-lists, which can
be sent to individuals or groups
- Enhanced Public Key Infrastructure
(PKI) Capabilities—McAfee now offers PKI capabilities through
the Microsoft Certificate Authority, providing strong
authentication for devices accessing the corporate network.
Smartphones and tablets can now connect to the network VPN using
client certificates, in the same way as laptops.
- Support for the Android
Tablet– In addition to support for the Android 2.2 and
Motorola Droid Pro, McAfee EMM software now extends support for
Android 2.3 and offers full support for Android-based tablets
- Enhanced Lotus Domino Support –
Lotus Domino users using Lotus Traveller 8.5.2 can now leverage the
unique capabilities of McAfee EMM software.
“In the last year alone we've seen such a range of user devices
in our workplace, from smartphones to Apple iPads,” said Sumit
Sehgal, information security manager at Riverside Healthcare. “The
fact that these devices are mobile means that they're also easily
lost or stolen, introducing risk. McAfee EMM software has really
helped us to be able to say ‘yes’ to these devices and manage them
as an extension of our security infrastructure. We can now secure
and manage mobile devices as we do any other endpoint.”
“Consumerization of IT has changed the way organizations need to
think about security,” said Todd Gebhart, McAfee executive vice
president and general manager of consumer, mobile and small
business. “According to recent McAfee research commissioned by
Evaluserve, as many as 41 percent of large organizations have
reduced their IT costs and increased productivity by allowing
employees to use their personal devices for business. With McAfee
EMM software, IT managers can now secure their digital assets
against data loss and increased threat vectors with the same
control, visibility and security they have with their laptops,
desktops, and servers.”
McAfee Enterprise Mobility Management software lets companies
extend the data center to smartphones and tablets in the same way
that they do so for laptops, leveraging the native capabilities of
the device and the enterprise IT infrastructure to deliver native
applications. The McAfee Enterprise Mobility Management solution -
with its scalable server-centric architecture - lets organizations
manage the next generation of mobile devices with the same
security, control, and visibility they have with their other
endpoints.
