MANDIANT Joins McAfee Security Innovation Alliance

Jul 14, 2009
Joint customers can streamline the gathering of electronic evidence.

MANDIANT Corporation, a leading provider of information security solutions and services today announced that it has joined the McAfee® Security Innovation Alliance™ (SIA) partner program. Under the McAfee SIA program, MANDIANT will integrate its MANDIANT Intelligent Response® (MIR) with McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator® (ePO™) software.

This integration will allow McAfee ePO software to deploy, update, and report on the MIR Agent which gathers electronic evidence to support incident response, electronic discovery and corporate investigations. This helps answer questions like: Have you been breached? What data must be provided in response to a subpoena? Were trade secrets stolen? Knowing the answer quickly lets an organization manage the flow of information on its own terms — both internally and externally.

“MANDIANT Intelligent Response automates and manages the incident response process when an enterprise has been compromised,” said Dave Merkel, Vice President of Products at MANDIANT. “Responding to an incident in a timely and comprehensive manner is essential; by partnering with McAfee the deployment and continued updates of MIR Agents will be further expedited.”

McAfee ePO software is the first platform that lets enterprises and governments centrally manage security and compliance products from multiple vendors, offering unprecedented cost savings and return on investment. With more than 35,000 organizations that are managing more than 60 million desktops and servers, this unique platform is helping McAfee SIA partners extend their reach and create complementary functionality.

”We are delighted to see MANDIANT join the SIA program to integrate their technology with the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator platform,” said Ed Barry, Security Innovation Alliance. “Our customers are increasingly looking for integrated solutions that help gather electronic evidence to support incident response, electronic discovery, and corporate investigations."
