What’s in a Name?

New Naming Makes Choosing the Right Solution Easier

McAfee is making it easier for customers to understand its products and solutions with new, more descriptive, and streamlined naming that aligns with the McAfee security risk management strategy. The aim is to make product names more intuitive, consistent, and memorable. We are rolling out name changes in phases throughout the year and in early 2009.

To familiarize yourself with the new naming framework, take some time to review our easy-to-follow chart:
