We use McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator to see attacks in real time. We also use it for storage as well.

I worked at McAfee, and we deployed the solution for our customers. The primary use case is policy management, as the solution supports robust policy management. The customer deployments were on-premises.

We use McAfee to detect patterns. For example, if we detect credit cards, we can use the advanced pattern. To maintain the solution, we require two individuals that are knowledgeable in SQL and DLP.

The use case differs based on each customer. I work with customers and try to understand their requirements, use cases, security challenges, and then I work on the project plan or design documentation so that I can help them configure their product.

We're pretty much using it as a traditional AV.

I use the solution for two things - as an antivirus for a spider scan enterprise and endpoint protection, and also to make application whitelisting, or application blocking, where we only allow certain applications to run on the server, in case the server has been compromised. That could mean our ePO scripts or anything might be compromised and it can't run. We install a plug-in so it won't run any executables which are not whitelisted. We're a cyber security company and a customer of McAfee.

We have a lot of endpoints and the major use case for us is to secure the endpoints. That includes computers, servers, etc.

I am an information system security coordinator and our company is a customer of McAfee. We use the product internally. Our primary use case is for protecting workstations, and servers. We use the antivirus with several modules that have a threat intelligence exchange, DLP and threat protection. It is a firewall hosting through the prevention system, web control and adaptive threat protection. The solution is for workstations and Windows servers. Approximately 1,300 administrators use the product and we have two people responsible for backup.

We have been using this solution for almost seven years. The primary use case for this solution is to protect our endpoints. We are using an on-premises deployment model.

I have been working with McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator since 2005. We are a service provider and system integrator, and this is one of the solutions that we provide for our clients. Most of the deployments we have done are on-premises.

It is an endpoint protection product. You use it to centrally manage security policies and push out configurations, then you manage the antivirus on endpoints. We use the on-premise deployment model.

We use McAfee Antivirus in our organization, as it is one of the best antivirus solutions on the market. We manage all of our endpoints centrally from the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator console. We send signature updates and software updates to all of the agents that we are responsible for.

With this solution we use ENS with DLP. DLP works in controlling data protection when transferring data from PC to USB, USB to PC. We also use it for read-only access for hard disks. In DLP we have many options which we can work with. Currently, we are using it for the clipboard, where we cannot capture screenshots from the PC screen, as well as for USB locking/data transfer, and the hard disk protection.
