Description:
Email- and web-borne threats, such as spam, spyware, phishing, viruses, worms, Trojans, and more endanger the security of your network, the productivity of your workforce, and the profitability of your company. The situation is only getting worse by the day.
If you’re like most companies, you’ve deployed an ever-increasing amount of security equipment to counter each new threat. Over time this equipment stacks up, management becomes an IT nightmare, the solution’s complexity spirals upward, and power, cooling and space requirements go through the roof. You’re left with more appliances, more vendors, more management consoles, unmanageable complexity and higher costs!
McAfee has a simple, high-performance, and cost-effective solution for large enterprises—McAfee Content Security Blade Server. Leveraging the power, efficiency, and scalability of a blade server architecture, McAfee Content Security Blade Server can deliver hundreds of thousands of dollars of annual savings in licensing fees and operational costs—with one platform and a single management console.
With Content Security Blade Server, up to 5,000,000 email messages per hour can be filtered, and 50,000 simultaneous web users can be protected with a single unit. Meeting your performance needs with less equipment means simple, more efficient, and more cost-effective security.
As your requirements evolve, you can turn on functionality you when you need it. Start with email security, anti-spam, malware removal, and email content filtering. Then add safe surfing and URL filtering. When you’re ready, all applications can be deployed on one blade system or distributed across several. This means fewer vendors to manage, nothing new to purchase as you grow, and reduced security focused IT workload.
System Requirements:
The McAfee Content Blade Server is a self-contained device. There are no minimum software or hardware system requirements.
