Service Provider Solutions for Enterprises

SP

Whereas as a growing number of SMB’s are seeking to outsource their security requirements to Telecommunications Providers, Service Providers and Systems Integrators, Enterprises are more reluctant to do so, unless they can retain an element of control and management within the solution or can be sure that their trusted outsourcing partner is implementing tried, tested and secure technology and security policies on their behalf.

 

Consequently, whereas SMBs are looking for Telcos, Service Providers and Systems Integrators to provide them with monthly subscription based security services that provide reduced operating expenditure and zero upfront capital expenditure, Enterprises are more willing to enter into longer term contractual partnerships that may involve the purchase of hardware and software to be located within the Enterprise premises. Typically the security solution is designed and installed using the skills of the outsourcing partner but managed in partnership between the Enterprise and the outsourcing partner.

 

Understanding the needs of the Enterprise market place, McAfee has developed a suite of security software and appliances from which Service Providers can build security solutions, tailored to the needs of their Enterprise customers.  Based upon McAfee’s proven security expertise, solutions can be built that will protect the data being created and stored within the enterprise network, protect data being transmitted across the network, will provide protection to the network and its users whilst connecting to the internet, and can provide guidance to an Enterprise on their current risk exposure, along with help on how to minimize their security risks. These solutions can be managed either by the Service Provider/ outsourcing partner, by the Enterprise customer, or in partnership together.

 

The Service Provider Security Protection Suite of solutions for Enterprises also includes McAfee’s market leading “Total Protection for Enterprises”, a fully automated security service for businesses that provides integrated Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware, Personal Fire-Wall with detailed security reporting. Total Protection provides a comprehensive, fully automated, always on, always up-to-date, single solution created especially for Enterprises that may be sold by Service Providers but managed either by the Service Provider or the Enterprise.
