Our users will be able to consolidate their defenses with some of the most robust technologies on the market today."

To simplify security operations, McAfee plans to enhance its network and endpoint solution offerings to deliver powerful security management through McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator.

Secure Computing has more than 22,000 customers in 106 countries that will be able to rely upon McAfee as a single source for complete security.
