McAfee, Inc. Partners with Network Frontiers to Streamline Compliance for Customers

Partnership to Deliver Consolidated Compliance Mapping Framework to Manage
Regulatory Madness
SANTA CLARA, Calif. & OAKLAND, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
McAfee, Inc. (NYSE:MFE) and Network Frontiers, the leader in IT regulatory
compliance management, announced today that McAfee has licensed Network
Frontiers` Unified Compliance Framework (UCF) to further help McAfee`s clients
navigate the increasingly complex compliance maze.

The partnership between McAfee and Network Frontiers will enable large
enterprises and heavily regulated industries such as utilities, healthcare,
education, government, and finance to easily identify common control
requirements across multiple regulations. Many organizations are unaware that
there is currently a 70 percent or more commonality in regulation requirements.
By identifying these commonalities, organizations can consolidate the time and
IT investment required for compliance and audit activities - potentially
realizing significant cost savings. This also enables businesses to leverage
existing McAfee security technology investment and reduce policy processes into
a unified plan to achieve and maintain continuous compliance across the
enterprise.

"For the first time customers will be able to leverage their entire gamut of
existing protection and security technologies for demonstrating compliance in a
unified way," said George Kurtz, senior vice president and general manager of
McAfee`s Risk and Compliance Business Unit. "In today`s fragmented security
landscape, multiple vendors with niche product offerings claim to solve
companies` PCI challenges when they can only cover a piece of the puzzle.
McAfee, along with its SIA partner ecosystem, will be able to deliver a unified
compliance scorecard for best practices, regulations and standards worldwide,
offering a far more complete IT GRC solution."

Network Frontiers` United Compliance Framework (UCF) harmonizes IT controls from
over 400 international regulatory requirements, standards and guidelines into a
single set of straightforward requirements that clearly show the many points
where global, state and industry regulations overlap. McAfee will utilize the
UCF data framework to deliver a comprehensive worldwide compliance matrix of
over 3,000 regulations applied across a complete range of security technologies
and into a matrix tool specifically mapped to McAfee customers` needs.

"By taking a full view of compliance and a broad look at security McAfee is
clearly taking a proactive leadership position in the security technology space.
And they`re making it easy for customers looking for both security and
compliance solutions to satisfy both requirements," says Craig Isaacs, CEO of
Network Frontiers.

Some of the most familiar regulations and guidelines harmonized by the UCF
include: Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX), International Variants, Basel II,
Gramm-Leach-Bliley, Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), EU
Data Privacy Act, NASD Manual, HIPAA, TIPEDA, FERC Security Program, Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), FIPS 191, GAO Financial Audit Manual, IRS
Revenue Procedure and Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

About the UCF

By focusing on commonalities across regulations, standards-based development,
and simplified architectures, the UCF supports a strategic approach to IT
compliance that reduces cost, limits liability, and leverages the value of
compliance-related technologies and services across the enterprise. The UCF`s
content and methodology is the direct result of Network Frontiers deep
understanding of IT regulations and standards and decades of experience
consulting for clients, publications, and vendors in the mission-critical IT
arena.

The UCF was created by Dorian Cougias and his research partner, Marcelo Halpern
of the international law firm Latham and Watkins, which oversees all legal
aspects of the UCF. More information can be found at www.unifiedcompliance.com.
