The traditional firewall lacks the needed visibility and intelligence to control the application sprawl resulting from the rapid growth of web-enabled  enterprise applications and Web 2.0. Without identitycentric, application-level visibility and control, the network door stands open to a variety of risks, including advanced persistent threats, compliance violations, and resource misuse.

McAfee Firewall Enterprise is a next-generation firewall that offers unprecedented levels of application control and threat protection. Advanced capabilities, such as application visualization, reputation-based global intelligence, automated threat feeds, encrypted traffic inspection, intrusion prevention, anti-virus, and content filtering, block attacks before they occur.

With its centralised firewall management and reporting, integration with the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (McAfee ePO) platform, and user-friendly rule-creation capabilities, Firewall Enterprise is easily administered. Three additional products simplify management and help to quickly respond to business requirements:

McAfee Firewall Profiler (included) instantly analyses network traffic and firewall rules to provide insight into the effectiveness of firewall configuration in enforcing a corporate security policy.

McAfee Firewall Reporter (included) turns audit streams into actionable information. This security event management (SEM) tool delivers central monitoring plus correlated alerting and reporting to help meet all major regulatory requirements, including PCI DSS, GLBA, HIPAA, SOX, and FISMA.

McAfee Firewall Enterprise Control Center (sold separately) offers centralised enterprise-class firewall policy management for global-scale deployments.

By deploying McAfee Firewall Enterprise, organisations can:

• Put the firewall in charge of network security again with integrated comprehensive network protection technology, including: Network intrusion prevention, Web filtering, Anti-virus, IP reputation, Geo-location, Anti-malware.

• Lower acquisition and operational costs with an increased protection profile in both physical and virtual network environments. Consolidated security functionality reduces appliance and network complexity. Integrated management platform reduces administration and investigation time and effort.
