GFI Combines McAfee Anti-Virus Technology From Network Associates With GFI MailSecurity

London, UK (ots)

Advanced McAfee Anti-Virus Scanning Engine Selected To Provide More
Comprehensive Email Security
The McAfee Security division of Network
Associates and GFI, a leading provider of Windows-based security and
messaging software, today announced that the advanced McAfee
anti-virus technology will be offered as part of the GFI MailSecurity
email security package. GFI MailSecurity from GFI includes the option
to integrate leading McAfee anti-virus technology with its existing
exploit detection, email threat detection and content and attachment
filtering, equipping businesses with a multi-layered defense against
the latest email threats.
"McAfee is arguably the best-known name in anti-virus security, so
it was important for us to provide our customers with the option to
incorporate the McAfee engine in the anti-virus portion of our new
GFI MailSecurity package," said Nick Galea, CEO of GFI. "By combining
the McAfee engine with our existing technology, GFI MailSecurity
users will have a highly comprehensive shield against new virus
assaults."
GFI selected the McAfee anti-virus scanning engine based on its
repeated success in independent evaluations, detection of non-virus
attacks such as rogue ActiveX controls and the global anti-virus
research talent of McAfee AVERT (Anti-Virus Emergency Response Team).
"Enterprises today need the strongest possible protection against
email corruption, and McAfee's leading anti-virus technology is
helping GFI develop a promising approach to attacking the problem,"
said Todd Gebhart, vice president of partner development for Network
Associates' McAfee Security division. "With our highly regarded virus
detection technology integrated into the GFI MailSecurity product,
GFI is enabling customers to curb the destructive power of viruses in
their e-mail environments."
