Project Overview
Replace IS&T’s current McAfee AntiVirus software solution for Windows and MAC standalone and in-domain computers with a new solution. Evaluate and select one new product for the Windows platform (in domain and standalone). Microsoft Forefront will be the preference for the Windows solution and will be evaluated first. This is because of its integration and licensing and established reputation. Because Forefront does not currently support Mac OS X or Linux, a second product will be evaluated and selected for MAC. PCI machines are out of scope for this project and will remain on McAfee. Mobile devices are also out of scope.
Project Scope
- Team will evaluate, determine, and procure a Malware protection solution software for the Windows platform to replace McAfee for both in domain and all standalone machines.
- ForeFront is the 1st preference for the windows solution. The project team will evaluate Forefront first. If Forefront does not meet our needs, we can explore other products that is also supports Mac OS x.
- Team will evaluate, determine, and procure a Malware Protection solution for Mac users to replace current McAfee Mac Solution.
- PCI will stay with current McAfee.
