Deploying McAfee products to computer with McAfee ePO

Introduction
McAfee ePolicy orchestrator is a management software to centrally manage all mcafee products. You can use mcafee epo server to deploy virus scan software, upgrade the software and patch the software, you can also use mcafee epo server for virus definition update server, mcafee ips products can also be centrally managed from epo server. You can create policy and push down to the mcafee products, unfortunately this is not a vendor neutral SIEM it would be great if mcafee epo can also support non-mcafee security products.
