McAfee and RSA, the security division of EMC announced a new joint
solution based on their existing technology partnership.
This joint solution integrates security data from the McAfee ePolicy
Orchestrator platform (McAfee ePO) with business infrastructure and compliance
data in the RSA Archer eGRC Platform and the RSA Archer Enterprise Management
solution. By connecting this data, customers can better leverage business
information together with security data to gain a deeper understanding of risk
and compliance issues.
“The McAfee and RSA solution provides greater visibility into the state of
security and compliance across the enterprise infrastructure and enables a more
comprehensive understanding of the business’ risk and compliance posture,”
said Dave Anderson, senior director of Security Management at McAfee.
The integration allows organizations to utilize McAfee security
management products to manage system level security while also incorporating
data and findings from those products into their risk and compliance management
processes within the RSA Archer eGRC Platform.
“Both IT and security organizations are facing challenges today managing a
myriad of tools and data that help them protect and keep the business up and
running,” said David Walter, senior director of RSA, The Security Division
of EMC.
This integrated offering provides customers the opportunity to improve
IT-GRC programs with information from security management processes. The Archer
eGRC platform understands business criticality adding this enables customers
to prioritize the issues being documented in McAfee ePO against their business
objectives.
McAfee and RSA are delivering on a technology
partnership announced earlier this year. The two industry leaders now offer
integrated solutions designed to help customers address complex security
challenges, lower risk, improve compliance, and ensure data security across the
IT infrastructure.
