Arrow Electronics Partners with McAfee, Inc. to Enhance Security Offerings to System Engineers.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions, a business division of Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE: ARW), today announced it will partner with McAfee, Inc. (NYSE: MFE) to deliver two new McAfee(R) Foundstone(R) courses to enhance system engineers' Vulnerability Management capabilities and to offer general enterprise security product training. Both sessions will be held at the Courtyard Marriot in Herndon, Virginia, April 18 through April 20.

In an effort to enhance security trainings and course offerings to system engineers, Arrow recognized the growing risks to enterprises as the number of new vulnerabilities and the speed and sophistication of attacks seeking to exploit those vulnerabilities increase significantly every year. Free to McAfee SecurityAlliance(TM) solution providers, the courses created by Arrow provide attendees with informative insight surrounding vulnerability issues.

Both courses offer a combined lecture and lab environment to teach systems engineers how to proactively manage network vulnerabilities and security threats using McAfee's prioritized approach to vulnerability management, how these new appliances help benefit each organization and how to gain maximum value from Foundstone Enterprise solutions.

Foundstone protects the critical network infrastructure with a consistent, measurement-based approach that incorporates asset discovery, inventory, and prioritization; threat intelligence and correlation; regulatory compliance measurement; remediation tracking and reporting.

"These courses were designed to help our partners become better educated on today's ever evolving security solutions such as McAfee Foundstone Vulnerability Management and overall product solutions," said Rich Severa, president, MOCA Group. "With these new courses, we are strengthening our partners' knowledge base to better support and supply their customers with the latest technologies available in the security marketplace."
