McAfee Protection Pilot

Protection Pilot Managing and maintaining security against Internet threats can be daunting for a small business. You have your hands full—manually updating anti-virus and anti-spyware protection while you try to keep up with everyday business demands.

Is there a way to make things simpler?

Relax. There’s relief in sight. McAfee® ProtectionPilotTM takes the hard work out of security management. Designed specifically for businesses with up to 500 systems, ProtectionPilot is a simple centralized system security manager. You maintain your network security from a central user-friendly dashboard. You change configurations in no time with the easy-to-navigate task menu.

Instead of manually installing updates on every desktop or making time-consuming trips to branch offices to get everyone current when a new threat is on the loose, your IT staff can do the jobs they were hired for. Protection Pilot launches an installation wizard that guides you through the deployment process. Once deployed, the switch is turned on. Your computers are update automatically to the latest protection—such as industry-leading McAfee® VirusScan® and McAfee Anti-Spyware Enterprise. If your users have changed settings or disabled security programs, McAfee ProtectionPilot detects vulnerabilities like these and immediately applies protection. When you have an outbreak or an update the security files, you get real-time security status. Your dashboard shows you graphs and charts that give you a quick overview and reports with all the details.
