when devices are locked by an administrator.
Managed anti-malware
Administrators can deploy and enforce use of the McAfee

VirusScan Mobile Security (McAfee VMS)

app to secure Android devices against malware threats. McAfee VMS is included with your McAfee EMM
subscription.
App Protection
Administrators can enforce compliance for Android devices based on trust ratings from McAfee

Global
Threat Intelligence

(McAfee GTI). Some factors that are used to determine trust ratings include the
risk of malware, unauthorized URL access, and developer reputation.
Whitelist and blacklist
Whitelist and blacklist policies secure iOS and Android devices by permitting or restricting specified
apps. These lists can be used to override or augment other app-based restrictions, like App Protection
for Android.
Threat events
Mobile security threats are reported as McAfee

ePolicy Orchestrator

(McAfee ePO

) threat events,
enabling automated reporting and actions. Threat events are available for jailbroken or rooted devices,
blacklisted apps, malware threats (according to McAfee VMS), and malicious or suspicious apps
(according to McAfee GTI).
Enhancements
This release of the product includes these enhancements.
Noncompliant reasons
Administrators can view the reason a device is out of compliance in Mobile Properties | Device Details.
End user notifications
Users receive push notifications or other alerts describing why their device is out of compliance.
Notifications tell users how to resolve the problem so they can resume corporate data sync.
Package assignment
Group-based package assignment provides performance improvements for globally distributed apps
and files.
If you assigned packages to individual users in previous versions of McAfee EMM, manually assign them
to groups before upgrading.
