Using award-winning McAfee security technology on the HP BladeSystem infrastructure, McAfee Content Security Blade Server has been designed from the ground up to provide large organizations with a high-performance, cost-effective, and secure solution. We’ve taken the most economical approach to infrastructure hardware—blade servers—and created an intelligent, integrated web and email security delivery system that takes advantage of the blade server’s inherent capabilities: operational efficiency, scalability and reliability.
The blade enclosure integrates server, storage, networking, and power management into a single solution that can be managed as a unified environment. It automatically responds to fluctuating traffic demands and system status. It incorporates wire speed load balancing for traffic distribution and fault tolerance. And, it uses up to 40 percent less power and 40 percent less space when compared to equivalent 1U rack-mounted servers.
McAfee Content Security Blade Server combines numerous web and email protections and access control features that would otherwise require multiple stand-alone products. With McAfee Content Security Blade Server, you can protect either mail or web infrastructure separately or take full advantage of the system’s flexibility and cover both with a single system. Combining functionality this way streamlines management and ensures secure policy enforcement without gaps.
McAfee offers both the M3-class (c3000) and M7-class (c7000) blade enclosures. The smaller M3-class, or 'shorty,' with 8 blade capacity, extends the benefits of the blade architecture to a broader range of enterprises and data centers large and small. The M7 enclosure with 16 blade capacity continues to be the ideal enclosure for larger data centers.
System Requirements:
The McAfee Content Blade Server is a self-contained device. There are no minimum software or hardware system requirements.
