Mac, Anti-Virus, what? ;)

Sadly, our previous license didn't address Mac users either.

Michael,

So how do you handle AV on the Macintosh side?  Our site license encompasses 
Windows and Macintosh so I would still need to provide a different AV solution 
to that side of the house if we discontinued that license.

We made the exact same switch on the 4.1.x series, and have had no problems. 
Love it, way better than McAfee and a lot easier to update and distribute.

Did it concurrently with a switch to Forefront for all managed systems.

Subject: Microsoft Security Essentials

Currently we are licensed to provide McAfee Enterprise to our students.  I am 
trying to gauge how well Microsoft Security Essentials protects student 
machines, and how nice it plays with Cisco NAC 4.7.x.  The release notes say it 
is a support antivirus package, so before we move from 4.1.x to 4.7.x this 
summer I want to know if its worth pitching to management that we switch from 
Mcafee to MSE.

I appreciate the responses on your experiences.  Thanks in advance to all 
replies and have a great summer.
