State of Indiana Selects McAfee to Safeguard Its Cybersecurity Program

McAfee IntruShield's Superior Reliability, Attack Coverage and Ease of Management Meets Indiana's Stringent Cyber Defense Standards

SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ McAfee, Inc. (NYSE: MFE), the pioneer and worldwide leader of intrusion prevention solutions, today announced the State of Indiana has selected the McAfee IntruShield IPS technology for its state-wide Cybersecurity Program after rigorously evaluating the IPS solutions of multiple vendors. McAfee IntruShield was selected based on its unmatched zero-day protection against new vulnerabilities, ease-of-management, and its ability to proactively block the widest breadth of known and unknown attacks before they can cause damage to the network. Additionally, the automation tools, behavioral rules and flexible policy enforcement capabilities within McAfee IntruShield were key factors in the selection process.
The State of Indiana Cybersecurity Program is responsible for the security of the systems deployed throughout the state's government network. The program is an initiative that reports into the Indiana Office of Technology which manages the state's information technology. Due to the distributed nature of the State's infrastructure typical of today's complex network environments and the critical value of the information housed within the network the ability to enforce strict policies was an imperative requirement of the IPS solution. IntruShield's purpose-built hardware, its architectural advantages which include the integration of signature, application/protocol anomaly, shell code detection algorithms and DoS detection, its ability to provide scalability and flexibility through Virtual IPS and Virtual Firewall, as well as its comprehensive attack coverage and rate of accuracy in threat protection, all made IntruShield the choice for the State's critical networks.

According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment. In the indictment, Jones and Johnson are charged in three counts with causing the interstate transportation of stolen property, namely IBM 330 and 335 servers, in violation of 18 U.S.C.
