McAfee and Intel Hardware-Assisted Security

Transforming the security industry

Next Steps:

Overview

The combination of McAfee and Intel brings fresh innovation to secure the future of computing and the Internet. With the launch of the 3rd Generation Intel® Core™ vPro™ processors, McAfee continues to take security beyond the operating system, delivering an advanced level of protection against targeted attacks and an entirely new way to manage security at the hardware level.

Emerging stealthy and targeted attacks place organizations at higher risk of intrusion, theft of corporate assets, noncompliance with regulations, and data loss. To defend against these new threat vectors, McAfee has introduced two products, McAfee Deep Defender and McAfee ePO Deep Command, that leverage the power of Intel® vPro™ Technology to extend client security beyond the operating system. Deep Defender uses McAfee DeepSAFE technology, jointly developed by McAfee and Intel, to detect and block stealthy attacks like no other security solution. McAfee ePO Deep Command provides a new approach to security management by working with Intel® Active Management Technology (AMT) to enable an advanced level of control over PCs. Both Deep Defender and ePO Deep Command are available as an extension to the Security Connected framework from McAfee.

Key Benefits

  • Leverage the power of Intel Core vPro technology
    Extend threat protection to a new level through security solutions that work with Intel technology. Both McAfee Deep Defender and McAfee ePO Deep Command utilize the features available in the 3rd Generation Intel® Core™ vPro™ processors to enable advanced security management and comprehensive protection against new, hard-to-detect attacks.
  • Get next-generation endpoint security beyond the OS
    Enable endpoint security that provides protection beyond the operating system and is designed to detect, block, and remediate advanced, hidden attacks for a deeper level of security. Deep Defender is the industry's first hardware-assisted security product built on the McAfee DeepSAFE technology platform, jointly developed with Intel.
  • Gain next-generation endpoint security management beyond the OS
    Use hardware-assisted endpoint security management that delivers beyond-the-operating-system management, reducing security operations costs while enhancing your security posture.
  • Maintain security visibility while lowering costs
    Wake PCs, update policies, and return them to lower power states to save energy and pursue industry incentives to cut power consumption without compromising security. McAfee ePO Deep Command leverages Intel vPro Active Management Technology (AMT) to enable this secure, remote access to systems, regardless if a PC is powered on or off.
  • Utilize real-time memory and CPU monitoring
    Leverage McAfee DeepSAFE technology, a memory software utilizing Intel VT-x to provide real-time kernel memory and CPU event protection with minimal performance impact.
  • Deploy quickly and manage easily
    Use McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) software to remotely deploy and manage Deep Defender alongside your existing McAfee endpoint security solutions, lowering management overhead and costs.
