But, some of the information is available only in Product Management Statements published in the Knowledge Center.

NOTE: This information does not include details related to future cloud environment releases.

The following information details the McAfee products supported for use on workstation and server operating systems. Only current versions are included, because most customers upgrade to the latest Service Packs shortly after they are released.
