McAfee Extends Mvision Security Platform with EDR, Cloud Protection

McAfee kicked off its annual MPOWER conference on Oct. 17 announcing new updates to its Mvision cyber-security product portfolio, The new updates include the Mvision EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) offering that provides new endpoint security capabilities. The new Mvision Cloud service brings cloud data protection to the McAfee portfolio, based on technology gained via the acquisition of Skyhigh in 2017. "Mvision Cloud is essentially the rebranding of the Skyhigh Networks acquisition that we did earlier this year to really bring the cloud control point to life," Raja Patel, VP and GM of corporate security products at McAfee, told eWEEK. "As an integration proof point between Skyhigh and McAfee, Mvision Cloud provides unified data protection, visibility and policy across endpoints, networking and cloud."
