In a bid to tap the growing mid-market, McAfee announced its plans to
increase its channel activity and retooling products for mid-sized companies.

To support the renewed focus, McAfee launched its Secure Internet Gateway 3000,
a new addition to McAfee's family of combined e-mail and Web security
appliances, for the mid-market, in India.

"Mid-sized businesses do not have the same resources of an enterprise,
but face many of the same increasing security risks," said Ashley Wearne,
vice president, Australia, New Zealand, South East Asia and India, McAfee.

"Companies do not have a lot of time to spend on security but would like
to configure and change policies when needed. McAfee helps by providing
enterprise-class functionality in products that are easy to deploy and
manage," he added.

Secure Internet Gateway 3000 is available for $2,395 and supports up to 200
users per device. It offers next-generation protection against spam, viruses,
spyware, and malicious Web sites in an integrated, affordable and easy-to-manage
appliance.
