Security software vendor McAfee announced McAfee Connected, a new technology partner program aimed at helping partners worldwide ensure product and service compatibility with McAfee-based solutions.
The program is designed to support partners with a set of clearly defined processes, tools, and co-branding opportunities. Through the program, McAfee will provide testing processes to ensure that the third-party hardware, software and services that the customers have chosen perform well, and are compatible with McAfee technology.
“Choosing hardware and software is a process fraught with difficult decisions that can have very expensive consequences,” said Gerhard Watzinger, Executive Vice President, Corporate Strategy, McAfee. “When customers and prospects see that solutions are part of McAfee Connected, they’re able to quickly and easily choose technology that is proven to enhance their McAfee-based deployments. Customers can enjoy reduced testing costs, simplified purchase cycles, and increased solution confidence as a result of this new test process and program.”
While the program has been rolled out globally, the initial focus of McAfee Connected is security management in virtual environments. In the coming months, the vendor will add other McAfee-based security solutions to the program.
McAfee is inviting independent software vendors, developer organizations, and professional and managed services organizations to apply for partnership in McAfee Connected.
