McAfee has announced its support for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Cloud Security Command Center (Cloud SCC).

According to McAfee, the MVISION Cloud now integrates with GCP Cloud SCC to help security professionals gain visibility and control over their cloud resources and detect and respond to threats.

With the integration Cloud SCC users can gain enriched information from the extensive configuration audit capabilities of McAfee MVISION Cloud to locate hidden risks and enforce configuration best practices.

Generally available today, Cloud SCC is a comprehensive security management and data risk platform for GCP, designed to help security teams prevent, detect and respond to threats from a single-pane-of-glass. It provides visibility in what assets are running in Google Cloud as well as risky misconfigurations, so enterprises can reduce their exposure to threats.

With incident data from McAfee MVISION Cloud, Cloud SCC becomes an even more powerful tool to improve an organisation’s security and risk posture within GCP.

With an added layer of visibility from McAfee MVISION Cloud, security professionals can prioritise violations and investigate activities, anomalies and threats with improved insight.

Users can also leverage industry-benchmarked configuration audit policies designed to comprehensively evaluate GCP resources and give an end-to-end assessment of risk. Furthermore, with the integration users can be notified to take action deep within the family of GCP services to correct policy violations and stop security threats.

“With McAfee MVISION Cloud for CSCC, security operations professionals can tap into the extensive cloud security incident data from McAfee MVISION Cloud for an added layer of insight to improve their security and compliance outcomes,” said Rajiv Gupta, senior vice president, Cloud Security Business Unit, McAfee. “Users will have the ability to make quicker and more informed actions in Cloud SCC, ultimately resulting in enhanced security and improved business impact.”

McAfee MVISION Cloud is currently available on the GCP Marketplace.
