McAfee VSE 8.8
Hi guys,
I need to install McAfee VSE 8.8 on a running 800xA v5.1 system consisted out of two ASCS servers and five Operator station clients. I asked our partner to offer us that product, and they offered us the McAfee Endpoint Threat Protection (1 year updates subscription license) for 11 applications.
Now as I've seen, this McAfee Endpoint Threat Protection is consisted out of: McAfee VSE, McAfee HIPS and McAfee SAE. I've downloaded the trial version of Endpoint Security from https://www.mcafee.com/enterprise/en-us/downloads/trials.html?region=us, and installed Adaptive Threat Protection 10_6_0_656_9 client on test environment. As I am new in McAfee, I suppose this is the right choice to install?
My questions are:
1. Is there a procedure for McAfee installation/configuration on an already running 800xA system, or this is the same as it is for the non-running system?
2. Do you know which McAfee applications should I install? Do you have any link where I could download the correct McAfee trial products suited for my needs?
Thanks in advance,
Hrvoje

As answered already VSE is approved.
Also as suggested read the ABB McaFee recommendations. VSE scanning can potentially slow down things if not set up correctly.
Also meander over to Microsoft - they have recommended VSE settings which you should apply. These are files to exclude.
Lastly - ABB does test the McaFee DATS daily and releases approvals. I have only had one incident back in about 2007 where Mcafee blocked control builder from running, but Mcafee fixed that quickly.
Other than that VSE works just fine.
