McAfee, Inc. Is First Security Company to Provide Solution to Protect Microsoft Exchange Server 2007

    RSA CONFERENCE, SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- McAfee,
Inc. (NYSE: MFE) today announced that it is the first security vendor to
support customers running Microsoft Exchange Server 2007. The new release
of McAfee(R) GroupShield(R) 6.0.3 provides Exchange customers with
comprehensive protection against incoming viruses, spyware, spam and
phishing.
    McAfee GroupShield secures the Exchange server from harmful attacks and
inappropriate data that can disrupt and compromise a company's systems and
network. Internet worms, viruses, and other threats often enter and spread
through e-mail attachments and data files that are routinely shared through
internal company databases. Failure to safeguard against these threats can
result in costly downtime, lost revenue, reduced productivity, and stolen
data.
    "In this new release of GroupShield, McAfee is making its leading
security risk management technologies available for customers of Exchange
2007," said Sridhar Jayanthi, vice president of Engineering, McAfee, Inc.
"Recent onslaughts of image spam and phishing attacks make it imperative
that customers have strong protection for their Exchange server.
Third-party tests have shown that McAfee products provide the industry's
highest level of protection against these threats."
    McAfee Anti-Spam integrates with GroupShield and blocks unwanted
messages such as spam and phishing attacks. Advanced technology from McAfee
Avert(R) Labs allows Anti-Spam to block even the latest forms of image spam
which are often difficult to detect. Both GroupShield and Anti-Spam are
managed by McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator(R) (ePO(TM)), which allows IT
administrators to manage anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-spam, system
firewalls, host intrusion prevention systems, and content filtering -- all
from one centralized console.
    McAfee GroupShield with Anti-Spam is available now. For more
