Data Sheet  |  McAfee Network Protection Solutions
The Enterprise Business Challenge
Spyware and Internet advertising programs are 
invading corporate networks. The consequences can 
include identity theft, system and network corruption, 
reduced employee productivity, and increased help desk 
costs—as much as 25 percent higher according to recent 
market surveys. Experts recommend that enterprises 
fi ght spyware with a layered security solution, the same 
approach that is used by most organizations to protect 
against viruses and worms.
But it’s not enough to only focus on external threats. 
Organizations must also control their employees’ access to 
the Web. Without such controls, employees waste time visiting 
non-business-related Web sites, waste bandwidth downloading 
music and other streaming media, and put the company at risk of 
lawsuit if they download objectionable materials.
The McAfee Security Solution 
The McAfee
®
 Secure Web Gateway is the industry’s fi rst 
enterprise-class, high-performance Web security appliance 
solution that delivers comprehensive protection against Web-
borne threats. Its high-performance ASIC-accelerated platform 
delivers unmatched price-performance, and its McAfee fi ltering 
technologies block spyware, inappropriate Web content, 
phishing, known viruses, worms, and Trojans. Secure Web 
Gateway’s comprehensive protection, ultra high-performance, 
and low total cost of ownership are unequaled in the industry. 
Business benefi ts—enterprise protection
McAfee SWG is a member of the McAfee Secure Content 
Management
 family of appliances that also includes a 
specialized e-mail security appliance, Secure Messaging Gateway 
(SMG), and a fully integrated Web and e-mail security appliance 
designed for small- and medium-sized businesses, Secure 
Internet Gateway (SIG).
New! Unparalleled anti-spyware 
McAfee’s SWG includes McAfee’s award-winning anti-spyware 
technology. McAfee SWG fi lters HTTP and FTP traffi c to protect 
your network against spyware, adware, dialers, keyloggers, and 
backdoors. McAfee SWG uses the same highly accurate pattern 
fi les as our desktop security product, McAfee Anti-Spyware 
Enterprise, to block known threats before they enter your network. 
This approach is more effective than other solutions that block fi le 
types (for example all .exe fi les) or perform simple URL fi ltering. 
No matter where the spyware is lurking on the Internet, it will be 
detected and blocked by McAfee SWG. 
The optional Web fi ltering module (see below) provides a second 
level of protection against spyware. It prevents employees from 
surfi ng Web sites known to host spyware and adware. It also 
blocks outbound communication from infected hosts, preventing 
loss of confi dential information.
For the ultimate anti-spyware protection, combine McAfee SWG 
with a desktop spyware cleaning solution such as Anti-Spyware 
Enterprise. This gives you a layered security solution, the approach 
recommended by most security experts. 
In-depth anti-virus 
McAfee SWG is based on the same anti-virus technology as our 
award-winning desktop product. The heart of McAfee anti-virus 
is an engine that blocks both known and unknown viruses, 
protecting you against zero-day attacks and new virus threats. 
McAfee SWG scans all Web traffi c using HTTP and FTP protocols. 
New! ICAP support
If you have an existing Web caching server that supports 
ICAP, McAfee SWG will seamlessly interoperate with it for 
optimum performance. 
New! Web fi ltering module 
McAfee’s Web fi ltering module lets you block Web pages that 
are unrelated to your business in order to preserve bandwidth, 
reduce business risk and legal liability, and improve employee 
productivity. The module is completely integrated with McAfee 
SWG and is available via an optional license. It includes a 
comprehensive database containing over 6 million URLs, 
updated daily, and grouped into 69 URL categories and 10 user-
defi ned categories for fl exible policy enforcement options.
