Device Authority

Partners and analysts also said McAfee could look to expand its portfolio around the Internet of Things. One company McAfee could look to in that space is Device Authority, which offers a way for companies to handle the massive influx of IoT devices, with capabilities for automated device provisioning, credential management, secure updates, and policy-driven data encryption. With those capabilities, the company says you can build end-to-end controls over IoT devices. The company is already partnered with Intel through the company's IoT Solutions Alliance.
