VSES
VSES expands VSE capabilities by providing remote scanning of NetApp filers and Internet Content Adaptation Protocol (ICAP) storage appliances. You can configure it from the VSE Console or use ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) to centrally manage and enforce policies, and then use queries and dashboards to track activity and detections.

NOTES:
 

• A version of most of the following information is available in the relevant product installation guides and readme.txt files. However, the original product and installation guides are unlikely to reflect the most recent support policy for those platforms because Microsoft releases new operating systems or service packs on a regular basis.
• This article contains the latest information. Some of this is made available through linked Product Management statements, which are also published in the Knowledge Base.
• Support for operating system service packs is generally synchronized with these service packs being supported by their manufacturer.
• McAfee updates the supportability information for each new Microsoft Windows operating system after this has been released to manufacturing and within 30 days of that release.

VSES release information

IMPORTANT: VSES 1.2.0 is compatible with products that install Syscore 15.4.0.811 or later. This includes:

• VSE 8.8 Patch 7 and later
• Host Intrusion Prevention 8.0 Patch 7 and later
• McAfee Agent 4.8.x (McAfee Agent 4.8.x does not drop or consume Syscore and is therefore compatible.)
