Executive Summary

 

McAfee Secure Internet Gateway (SIG) and SiteAdvisor are a winning combination in the fight against malware. The appliance is a superior roadblock against every sort of malware, yet it is completely unobtrusive for regular Internet traffic.

SiteAdvisor lets you control and limit access to Web sites that contain specific kinds of malware. We found Secure Internet Gateway and SiteAdvisor performed extremely well, even under heavy traffic loads.

With unerring accuracy, SIG and SiteAdvisor identified and stymied malware and malware-related Web sites. The appliance is highly scalable, and it’s incredibly easy to set up and use.

We think Secure Internet Gateway and SiteAdvisor should be your first line of defense in your war on malware.
