Product Features

Leading anti-virus technology

The McAfee anti-virus scan engine stops every type of virus and malicious code threat, including “traditional” viruses, email worms, Internet worms, DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) attacks, backdoor and remote access Trojans, and zombies. Using technology that drills down into compressed data, Active Threat Protection is also able to find hidden threats buried in .zip and other compressed file types.

Proactive protection is delivered through advanced heuristics and generic detection, which allow Active Threat Protection to protect—in advance—against new, unseen viruses and other threats.

Centralized management and reporting

Active Threat Protection is integrated with McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator—one of the only truly scalable security policy management tools—for policy management and detailed graphical reporting. ePolicy Orchestrator is a centralized authority to enforce protection compliance, providing a single console to manage your McAfee deployments.
