GEC NEWS WIREIntel Security has outlined a new, unifying approach for the cybersecurity industry that eliminates fragmentation through updated integrated solutions, new cross-industry partnerships and product integrations within the Intel Security Innovation Alliance and Cyber Threat Alliance.
“Transforming isolated technologies into a cohesive security system is without a doubt the most daunting challenge facing practitioners today,” said Chris Young, senior vice president and general manager of Intel Security Group.
The workforce shortage facing the cybersecurity industry makes it increasingly difficult to hire and retain employees. These scarce resources make it harder to maintain a coherent security architecture to prevent damage from and minimize the cost of emerging threats while embracing the potential of new open source, digital, cloud and security technologies.
At the heart of a unified strategy for cybersecurity is the need for integrated solutions that tie into the enterprise’s framework to address top-of-mind challenges. Intel Security announces new and updated solutions that do exactly that: McAfee Enterprise Security Manager10 and McAfee Virtual Network Security Platform.
The need for advanced malware protection within the public cloud environment calls for integrated virtual solutions. McAfee vNSP now extends virtual network protection to Amazon Web Services cloud and OpenStack cloud deployments, with new simplified multi-cloud licensing, easily protecting virtual networks.
Today, the Intel Security Innovation Alliance, the industry’s premier technology partnering program, announces 16 new partnerships, bringing the total number of partners to more than 135 globally.
