McAfee Case Study Sample

In its final decision to choose McAfee as its primary security vendor, the State not only met the objective of cutting costs—it gained increased protection to meet today’s challenges. “Standardizing on one vendor for endpoint security makes sense for multiple reasons,” explains Rico Singleton, New York State Deputy Chief Information Officer. “With one vendor, we can simplify administration, cut maintenance and support costs, and accurately predict spending.”

After researching options and analyzing the State’s current installed base, the State of New York chose McAfee Total Protection (ToPS) for Endpoint Advanced for anti-virus protection and more for all 250,000 endpoints. In addition to anti-virus and anti-spyware protection for desktops and servers, ToPS for Endpoint provides: host intrusion prevention for desktops, anti-spam protection for Microsoft Exchange and Lotus Domino servers, email anti-virus gateways, McAfee SiteAdvisor for safe web surfing, network access control, and policy auditing for the desktop.
