Automated network security audits combined with an extensive vulnerability management portal.
To date McAfee has conducted more than 20 million scans for our customers. Over 80,000 web sites rely
on McAfee's daily vulnerability assessments for protection from hackers and third-party certification of their
security. Our advanced vulnerability discovery and management technology provides a highly effective security
solution with an ROI proven in more than 1,000 published studies.

Vulnerability Knowledge Base
McAfee's up-to-date vulnerability knowledge base powers our comprehensive network security audits and
vulnerability management technology. We update the knowledge base every 15 minutes with tests for newly discovered
vulnerabilities and validated fixes from hundreds of sources worldwide. These continuous updates, combined with
between-scan proactive alerts, ensure McAfee customers are always alerted of the latest vulnerabilities affecting
their network.
Vulnerability Management Portal and Alert System
McAfee's vulnerability management portal provides highly secure access to detailed vulnerability
audits and remediation information on n-tiered load-balanced application servers. Our web-based vulnerability
management portal provides easy access to vulnerability management information from any location. Extensive tools
enable you to launch scans, examine vulnerability details, create network device groups, track trends, access patch
information, configure alerts, assign user rolls and user device responsibility groups, and generate customized
reports.
Scan Appliances
Our network of distributed proprietary scanning servers, located in multiple data centers in North
America and Asia, allows us to reliably perform daily security audits for thousands of clients located in more than
40 countries around the world. Each scan appliance is controlled by our central knowledge base and vulnerability
management system, allowing the most suitable appliance to be automatically assigned to each device under test.
Data Security
McAfee is the only security scan vendor to be third-party certified to the CISP/AIS Level 1 security
standard by Visa International.
Our entire portal infrastructure, and all customer data, is maintained within redundant, highly secure
Tier One data centers with SAS-70 security certification, 24/7 on-site guards and biometric access control. The
portal resides behind high-availability firewalls and intrusion monitoring systems. In addition, each server runs a
localized firewall and IDS/IPS on top of a uniquely customized, hardened Linux distribution OS.
Secure access to each user account can be easily configured with options for IP address restriction,
private key authentication, and two factor single-use password authentication.
Customer Support
McAfee Secure certification includes unlimited online, email or telephone customer support from CISSP
certified security professionals. Whatever your technical question, or level of expertise, our experienced staff is
there to support you. With the unprecedented experience of scanning thousands of network devices every day, we can
quickly provide accurate and authoritative assistance.
