Next Generation of Cloud-Based Security Products

The next-generation, cloud-based managed solutions that are being developed under the agreement will leverage Verizon’s leading managed security services platform, global IP infrastructure, advanced security operation centers, expansive footprint of data centers and McAfee’s world-class security technology powered by its Global Threat Intelligence.

The new security services will be managed by Verizon Business and operated in the cloud. The services will include a broad selection of security technologies, including firewalls, intrusion prevention services, anti-malware, content control and Secure Socket Layer (SSL) virtual private network (VPN).

Ideal for highly distributed businesses, these new solutions will offer enterprises a number of advantages, including strong security included with their IP connectivity, tighter security integration with other protected assets, and enhanced flexibility. These services are well- suited for the small-to-medium enterprise, large enterprise and government agencies.

Verizon and McAfee will offer these new solutions in North America, South America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region.
