McAfee Change Control

McAfee Change Control

Prevent unauthorized changes while automating regulatory compliance controls

Next Steps:

Overview

McAfee Change Control software eliminates change activity in server environments that can lead to security breaches, data loss, and outages. Change Control makes it easy to meet regulatory compliance requirements.

Gain continuous visibility and real-time management of changes — Protect critical system, configuration, and content files across distributed and remote locations by enabling instant change detection and providing sophisticated alerting mechanisms.

Prevent tampering with critical files and registry keys — Enforce change policies and block all unauthorized changes, whether attempted maliciously or in error.

Fulfill PCI DSS regulation requirements — Change Control File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) software lets you validate PCI compliance in real time. It includes out-of-the-box FIM rules that make it easy to get started, and includes QSA-friendly reports for simple PCI reporting.

Prevent change-related outages and delays — Block unauthorized changes, while emergency fixes and other out-of-process changes are automatically documented and reconciled for easier audits.

Get rid of resource-intensive compliance policies — Eliminate the need for manual, error-prone, and resource-intensive compliance policies that are often associated with SOX mandates and other regulations. With McAfee Change Reconciliation software (optional), Change Control lets you build an automated IT control framework in which all the information required to verify compliance is available in a single reporting system.

Gain centralized change management — Change Control integrates with McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (McAfee ePO) software for centralized IT management.
