announced the

availability of the McAfee Enterprise Mobility Management (McAfee

EMM) 9.5 software in India. 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 have seen such a range of user devices in our workplace, from

smartphones to Apple iPads,” said Sumit Sehgal, Information

Security Manager, 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, Executive VP and GM-consumer, mobile and small

business, McAfee. He added, “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 datacenter 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.
