Santa Clara, California - 27 June 2002 (PRN): The McAfee Security division of Network Associates (NYSE: NET) and GFI, a leading provider of Windows-based security and messaging software, today announced that McAfee's advanced anti-virus technology is being offered as part of the GFI MailSecurity e-mail security package. The GFI MailSecurity product includes the option to integrate leading McAfee anti-virus technology with its existing exploit detection, e-mail threat detection, and content and attachment filtering, equipping businesses with a multi-layered defense against the latest e-mail threats.

"McAfee is arguably the best-known name in anti-virus security, so it was important for us to provide our customers with the option to incorporate the McAfee engine in the anti-virus portion of our new GFI MailSecurity package," said Nick Galea, CEO of GFI. "By combining the McAfee engine with our existing technology, GFI MailSecurity users will have a highly comprehensive shield against new virus assaults."

GFI selected the McAfee anti-virus scanning engine based on its repeated success in independent evaluations, detection of non-virus attacks such as rogue ActiveX controls and the global anti-virus research talent of McAfee AVERT (Anti-Virus Emergency Response Team).

"Enterprises today need the strongest possible protection against e-mail corruption, and McAfee's leading anti-virus technology is helping GFI develop a promising approach to attacking the problem," said Todd Gebhart, vice president of service provider and OEM sales for Network Associates' McAfee Security division. "With our highly regarded virus detection technology integrated into the GFI MailSecurity product, GFI is enabling customers to curb the destructive power of viruses in their e-mail environments."
