I also received a solution brief with a two page document outlining ACS and McAfee/Intel's combined solution. I had never seen this 2 page document before and it is an Adobe file so I will copy and paste it in here in my next two posts to you. ePlus Technologies was listed (just by a picture icon) as a reseller among the other ones we know of.

"McAfee and Advanced Cyber Security (ACS) have joined forces to bring you
a proactive, security solution that will change the way you look at endpoint
security. ACS EndpointLock™ keystroke encryption software offers front line
protection against Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) including zero day
and polymorphic threats that evade detection by other security measures.
With integration into McAfee® Orchestrator® (McAfee ePO™) software,
EndpointLock™ offers a valuable tool that will help security teams better
secure endpoint credentials and corporate data from being stolen."

That is one of the paragraphs of this two page document.

The Business Problem
Up until now, organizations have lacked the ability to fully protect their endpoints from
a zero day keylogger, the single biggest threat that is leveraged in the first stages of almost
all advanced threats. A keylogger is a type of surveillance software that has the capability
to record every keystroke you make on your keyboard. In addition, most keyloggers come
with the ability to change their form and go on undetected as they quickly spread between
the endpoints in your organization.
McAfee & ACS Joint Solution
With EndpointLock™ Keystroke Encryption software, McAfee and ACS provide the missing
link in endpoint security by encrypting all of the endpoint’s keystrokes, thus blocking
credentials and other sensitive data from ever being stolen. With keystroke encryption,
EndpointLock™ stops the advanced threat in its tracks, and is the only patented encryption
software that encrypts all keystrokes at the lowest possible layer in the kernel. The
encrypted keystrokes are then sent to the browser or desktop application via a patented
“Out-of-Band” channel, a separate path that is invisible to keyloggers. ACS EndpointLock™
protects the vulnerable endpoint from exposing sensitive information such as data entered
during provisioning of corporate VPN profiles, login credentials and private company
information that can lead to a costly data or network breach.
In addition to keystroke encryption, EndpointLock™ also prevents screen scraping and
clickjacking, has an anti-subversion feature and alerts of a kernel compromise occurring
at one of your endpoints. All of EndpointLock’s patented features work seamlessly in the
background without causing any latency as they safeguard your enterprise.
