McAfee Risk Advisor 2.5 [vokeon]

Take the guesswork out of where to focus your security efforts

McAfee Risk Advisor proactively combines threat, vulnerability, and countermeasure information to pinpoint assets that are truly at risk. It takes the guesswork out of when and where to focus your security efforts, saving you time and money.

When enterprises deploy security point products, they're often flying blind—not knowing whether they're spending too much or too little on security, or whether they're underprotected or overprotected. They struggle to balance business objectives and productivity with the right amount of security.

McAfee Risk Advisor takes the guesswork out of protecting critical assets by proactively correlating a threat feed with vulnerability and countermeasure information to pinpoint critical assets at risk and require immediate attention. Risk Advisor helps you determine what countermeasures you need, and when you need them. It enables businesses to defend themselves against the very real threats they face—from malicious hackers, to viral malware, and more.

Risk Advisor delivers visibility into the risk posture of the enterprise, which is ideal for managers and executives to get an “at a glance” appreciation how at risk they are and where they need to focus their attention. From these global risk dashboards, you can quickly drill down to get granular details of the threat and how it relates to specific assets.

The threat feed viewer, a key component of Risk Advisor, provides updated information about new and current threats from millions of collection points, delivered by our renowned research organization, McAfee Labs. In addition to threat descriptions and analyses, the threat feed supplies recommended remediation, links to threat discussion groups and notices, various risk-scoring methods, applications that are impacted, and how threats affect regulatory mandates. Risk Advisor maps the threat feed to specific McAfee countermeasures that are deployed (or should be deployed) to ensure an optimized security posture. Ultimately, Risk Advisor provides a clear ROI, enabling you to focus your priorities.
