Intel Security Unveils New Strategy
Published Oct 29, 2015

Intel Security unveiled its new corporate strategy aimed at enabling businesses around the globe to more aggressively and effectively defend against data breaches and targeted attacks. Through a more integrated and more open security system that unifies the key phases of the threat defense lifecycle, the new strategy focuses on the endpoint and the cloud as the most effective areas for advanced visibility and practical operational control. These control points are enabled by world-class threat detection and analytics. The strategy also emphasizes a simplified user experience powered by centralized management and a connected architecture across Intel and third-party products. Through this open and integrated system, Intel Security aims to empower organizations to resolve more threats, faster, with fewer resources.
Intel Security will continue to focus on its core strength of protecting organizations against known threats, and is expanding its investment in tools that help detect new threats faster and enable automated workflows to rapidly correct them. By unifying protection, detection and correction with real-time centralized management into an adaptive feedback loop, known as the threat defense lifecycle, security then evolves and learns in an iterative cycle that improves over time. This model helps organizations become more effective at blocking threats, identifying compromises, and implementing remediation as well as countermeasure improvements more quickly.
“The rising volume and complexity of attacks presents a vicious cycle of challenges for organizations and makes speed and efficiency critical,” said Hamed Diab, Regional Director at Intel Security, MENA. “With a rapidly expanding attack surface, and a shortage of relevant talent and expertise, defenders need to win on visibility into events, simplified management, and capabilities that empower teams to close the loop on attacks in progress – faster, more effectively, and with fewer resources.”
In support of the new strategy, Intel Security is also announcing new solutions that will each serve as a foundation for future technologies and products. McAfee Endpoint Security 10.X delivers a new streamlined and agile endpoint services platform, enabling protection for devices with faster scanning and deployment. McAfee Active Response, a new endpoint threat detection and response solution, supplies on-demand and continuous visibility into an array of endpoint activities with powerful, automated tools to respond to and monitor threat events. The solutions can be used and managed together using Intel Security’s broadly adopted centralized management platform for a high-speed, high-accuracy, closed-loop approach to the threat defense lifecycle. Intel Security also now supports the Structured Threat Integration Expression (STIX) and Trusted Automated eXchange of Indicator Information (TAXII) standards designed to enhance detection of threats through sharing of threat intelligence.
McAfee® Endpoint Security
Serving as the foundation for Intel Security’s dynamic endpoint strategy, McAfee Endpoint Security 10.X enables customers to uniquely tackle the threat defense lifecycle with reduced complexity and better performance. McAfee Endpoint Security 10.X introduces a new platform built to enable real-time communication between threat defenses for more effective protection against emerging threats. By sharing and leveraging security events, it can act against potentially dangerous applications, downloads, websites and files at the moment suspicious behaviors are observed, and before a system becomes patient zero. Its extensible architecture provides a framework for IT teams who are burdened with multiple solutions to enhance protection, detection and correction against today’s advanced threats.
Key features in McAfee Endpoint Security 10.X include:
• Intelligent Endpoint Protection: access to real-time intelligence and actionable threat forensics from defenses that communicate and learn from each other to combat advanced threats
• Strong and Effective Performance: faster scanning, threat updates, maximized CPU and protection performance that is proven to be effective in third-party tests
• Collaborative Protection Framework: simplifies and removes complexity of duplicate technologies, connects other solutions, including third parties, and enables more defenses to communicate with each other using Intel Security’s endpoint security framework
