How Total Protection Service works

How Total Protection Service works
Total Protection Service delivers comprehensive security as a service for all the computers on
your account. It automatically checks for threats, intercepts them, takes the appropriate action
to keep your data and your network safe, and tracks detections and security status for reports.
1 Client software runs on each computer where it is installed.
2 The client software up dates itself — automatically and silently — by downloading the latest detection definition
(DAT) files from your account's administrative website, the McAfee Security Center. DAT files define the threats
that the client software detects.
3 The client software uploads security information about each computer to the Security Center
for use in administrative reports.
4 As your account's administrator, you can use a web browser to visit the Security Center, where you can access
reports that detail the status of client computers and use tools for customizing and managing security.
