Overview
Today’s security challenges require open, collaborative approaches to detect threats, reduce risk, and ensure compliance. The McAfee Security Innovation Alliance (SIA) provides customers with integrated security solutions that allow them to resolve more threats faster with fewer resources.
Through the SIA program, we help accelerate the development of interoperable security products, simplify the integration of these products with complex customer environments, and provide a truly integrated, connected security ecosystem to maximize the value of existing customer security investments.
Learn more about how our open partner ecosystem strengthens cybersecurity.
Driving Technology Leadership
McAfee SIA partners are screened for innovation, strategic value, and market leadership in their respective market segments that complement the McAfee solution portfolio. Central to our relationship with each partner is at least one customer use case. Built around innovative integration ideas, use cases improve threat visibility and create powerful new security behaviors and workflows. Only after the partner completes extensive McAfee engineering testing will the integrated product receive the McAfee Compatible designation.
