MOVE AntiVirus delivers security for VDI and server virtualization
without compromising performance
As enterprises start to deploy virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) solutions, they
struggle with the persistent or dynamic options for their end users. Adding to
the complexity of these projects is the challenge of ensuring user performance and
expectations. Capacity planning and understanding how to achieve predictable
resource utilization, while at the same time supporting virtualized servers with
diverse operating parameters and protecting against malware, has been operationally
challenging. McAfee Management for Optimized Virtual Environments (MOVE)

AntiVirus for virtual desktops and servers is uniquely designed to relieve the overhead of
traditional virus scans, yet provide the protection and performance essential for success.
The Virtual Desktop Anti-Virus Problem
Enterprises are considering or may have already deployed VDI and want the flexibility to either build
images dynamically at logon or serve persistent images from the data center to the end user. The ability
to provide more control over data and data access drives return on investment. However, moving to
serve these endpoints from within the data center has some infrastructure implications. The dynamic
nature of provisioning desktops and their overall load in a virtualized environment is hard enough to
model, and capacity planning is also a challenge. Anti-virus that is not designed for virtual environments
makes this task even more complex. Even though the user desktop has been virtualized and can run
traditional anti-virus software within the individual virtual machine (VM), the cumulative performance
impact on the infrastructure can be profound. This directly affects the total number of virtual desktops
that can be supported and decreases the expectations of operational returns.

With today’s persistent threats and the proliferation of malware, running endpoints without anti-virus
is not an option. With the consolidation of corporate data within the data center, the need to be more
vigilant and provide constant protection actually increases because activity at the endpoint is now closer
vigilant and provide constant protection actually increases because activity at the endpoint is now closer
to critical data and servers than ever before. Virtualization provides the ability to quickly repair and
mitigate the spread of viruses by generating pristine desktop images and decreasing risk, but on-access
virus scanning is still essential.

How McAfee MOVE AntiVirus Is Different
McAfee enables customers to use their current McAfee VirusScan

Enterprise protection and optimize
it for virtualized environments. McAfee MOVE AntiVirus is an add-on component that is designed to
support on-access scans and update functions within virtual desktop environments, greatly reducing
support on-access scans and update functions within virtual desktop environments, greatly reducing
the infrastructure impacts seen with traditional anti-virus deployments. Supporting hosted VDI with
VMware View and Citrix XenDesktop, a lightweight endpoint component communicates to the McAfee
MOVE AntiVirus virtual appliance to broker the anti-virus processing on behalf of each VM desktop.
Each VM can be configured with unique, individual policies set in the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator
