Your systems and applications are under constant attack by worms, adware, spyware and viruses. Host intrusion prevention systems monitor and block such unwanted activity. McAfee Host Intrusion Prevention protects your assets with multiple proven methods, including a system firewall and both signature and behavioral analysis. Standalone products have cumbersome nonintegrated management platforms that prevent many companies from deploying the comprehensive protection they need against today's blended threats. McAfee Host Intrusion Prevention integrates into your existing McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator management platform, for accurate, scalable, and easy-to-use advanced system protection. With automatic signature updates and zero-day protection, you get the advanced vulnerability-shielding capabilities you need. Patching systems is something you will do less often and less urgently, and you will find it easier to comply with legal regulations. With a single agent for host intrusion prevention and desktop firewall, McAfee Host IPS is easy to deploy, easy to configure, and easy to manage.

McAfee Host Intrusion Prevention for Servers with ePolicy Orchestrator [Academic]

Vulnerability shielding
Automatic security content updates target specific vulnerabilities and recognize unknown exploits trying to taking advantage of that vulnerability and stop it from executing; security content updates do not require reboots of the end system

Prevents buffer-overflow exploits
McAfee HIPS uses a patented host intrusion technology to prevent buffer-overflow attacks, one of the most common methods of attacking servers and desktops

Blocks removable USB media
By blocking the use of removable USB media, you can stop viruses or worms from being inadvertently loaded onto systems, reduce data theft, and enforce corporate lock-down policies

Desktop firewall protection
With Mcafee® Desktop Firewall, you can apply different firewall policies based on how your system connects to the network; quarantine systems as they come on to the network and block system ports

Web and database server protection
Protect Web and database servers from attacks like directory traversal and SQL injectionattacks by using unique HIPS protection technology

Advanced application protection
Using enveloping and shielding, you can prevent the compromise of applications and their data, and prevent the application from being used to attack other applications, even by a user with administrative privileges

Proactive comprehensive protection
Prevent intrusions with three layers of protection: behavioral rules, signatures analysis, and firewall protection; McAfee Host Intrusion Prevention even protects you against unknown (zero-day) attacks

Deploy and scale it globally
With centrally managed and scalable host intrusion prevention, you can deploy it across your entire enterprise for complete global protection with multiple language support

Prioritized patch management
Use the power of host intrusion prevention against new vulnerabilities and exploits when they hit for more time to research, test, and deploy patches

Lower your costs
Reduce the frequency and urgency of patching systems; and, with its centralized streamlined management, you can reduce system maintenance costs
