- Enterprise Security Managers Gain
Unprecedented Control Over Voice, Video, Collaboration, SIP Trunks,

Sipera Systems, a leader in
real-time Unified
Communications (UC) enablement and security, today announced
that its award-winning
href="sipera.com/products-services/uc-sec-appliances">UC-Sec
enterprise communications security solution is integrated and has
been designated as McAfee Compatible with the McAfee® ePolicy
Orchestrator® (McAfee ePO™) security management
platform.
The integration gives IT security managers unprecedented
visibility of and control over the security of real-time business
communications using converged IP networks. Now security
managers can block threats and enforce policies on voice-over-IP,
IP videoconferencing, SIP trunks, collaboration tools, Cloud-based
communications and other real-time applications.
To highlight this breakthrough integration, Sipera and McAfee
will present a free webinar on June 28 to showcase security
considerations for enterprises that are adopting VoIP, SIP trunks
and related Unified Communications (UC) applications. More

Sipera’s products are network devices that provide comprehensive
security and application-layer control for real-time UC
applications and SIP trunks. As a complement to the existing
security architecture, the UC-Sec provides application-layer
firewalling, intrusion prevention, threat mitigation, access
control and policy enforcement in real-time for delay sensitive
applications. Sipera’s solutions enable enterprises to
migrate mission-critical business communications to converged IP
networks, SIP trunks, and Cloud-based service applications without
increasing security risk or violating compliance rules.
The McAfee ePO platform lets enterprises and governments
centrally manage security and compliance products from multiple
vendors, offering cost savings and return on investment. With
more than 40,000 organizations managing over 60 million PCs and
servers, this unique platform is helping McAfee Security Innovation
Alliance™ partners to extend their reach and create complementary
functionality.
The Sipera security systems were compatibility tested within the
McAfee

Security Innovation Alliance program, which helps accelerate
the development of interoperable security products and simplifies
the integration of these products within complex customer
environments.

and video conferencing have migrated to converged IP network.
Now the security functions of that network must adapt to
these new applications,” said Adam Boone, Vice President of
Marketing and Product Management for Sipera Systems.

security managers to see and control the security posture of these
