McAfee offers Partners New Revenue Opportunity

McAfee has offered its Managed Service Provider(MSP) program, providing partners with the tools, training and resources to build a successful managed security services business. McAfee provides a scalable and consistent “pay-as-you-go” monthly subscription security services program that addresses nearly any customer requirement, especially that of the small to medium sized business whether it is on premise or cloud based.

Gavin Struthers, Sr. VP, Worldwide Channels, McAfee said, “We are seeing tremendous growth in the managed service market fuelled by customer demand for reduced IT complexity and lower cost. McAfee has been in the managed services business for more than a decade. Our new MSP program leverages our extensive managed services experience, and provides partners access to the industry’s broadest portfolio of cloud-based and on-premise managed security services via a globally consistent and scalable program.”

The McAfee Managed Service Provider program is believed to offer protection for endpoints, servers/networks, virtual environments and mobile devices, in addition to the industry’s broadest security SaaS portfolio, which can all be managed centrally through either McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator or the McAfee SaaS management console. The simplicity of centralized security management allows for remote administration of McAfee software and SaaS solutions which meet the needs of SMBs who often have limited resources.
