McAfee Rogue System Detection 2.0 Beta Refresh

McAfee is pleased to announce the Rogue System Detection (RSD) 2.0 Beta Refresh. 

RSD provides real-time detection of rogue systems by means of a sensor placed on at least one system within each network broadcast segment (typically a subnet). By rapidly identifying rogue systems, administrators are empowered to significantly improve system security compliance and eliminate the potential vulnerabilities posed by rogue, non-compliant systems.

This new version leverages the functionality included with McAfee® ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) 4.0, improves the manageability via ePO, and adds new features for deploying RSD.

Beta Schedule

Beta 1 - 08 Apr 2008

Beta Refresh - 07 May 2008
