Mcafee helps build Secure Bridge to the Cloud
McAfee has announced the McAfee Cloud Security Platform, an innovative new approach to helping organizations safely and efficiently take advantage of Cloud computing. The new platform achieves this by securing all content and data traffic - including email, web and identity traffic - moving between an organization and the Cloud.
"Once you move data or applications to the Cloud, you essentially lose most - if not all - of your security visibility, which most organizations find unacceptable," said, Marc Olesen, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Content and Cloud Security at McAfee. "By securing the data and traffic before it travels to or through the Cloud, we help businesses extend their security practices and policies into the Cloud."
Another key aspect of ensuring Cloud security is making sure organizations identify data that should or should not be moved to the Cloud. Using McAfee's Data Loss Prevention solution, organizations can first understand where its data resides, classify that data in terms of importance or sensitivity, build policies to protect that data, and then enforce those policies while data travels within or outside the organization to the Cloud.
McAfee Data Loss Prevention discovers data no matter where it resides or what format it is in on the network, giving the enterprise rich data mining tools to deliver effective protection and the creation of more effective policies that work quickly. Centralized management and reporting is also provided through integration with the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator platform.
