GENTEXT/REMARKS/1. This MARADMIN provides information on the Antivirus Home Use Programs (AV HUP).
2. BACKGROUND.
2.A. The DoD antivirus software license agreement with McAfee allows active DoD employees and authorized government contractors to utilize the antivirus software for personal device protection. Home use of antivirus products will not only protect personal computers, but will also reduce the risk of malicious threats being introduced to the workplace and compromising DoD networks. The Defense Information Services Agency (DISA) will provide antivirus software to government employees and defense contractors with an approved .mil email address for their home use.
2.B. Members of the DoD government and defense contractor community can now take advantage of a one-year subscription to McAfee Internet Security for your PC or Mac at no cost. This subscription gives you proactive security for your home computer by preventing malicious attacks and keeping you safe while you browse, search, and download files online. McAfee Internet Security service also continuously delivers the latest software, so your protection is never out-of-date. By installing McAfee Internet Security on your home system, you will not only be protecting your PC from malicious threats, but also help your organization strengthen its informational technology security against transferable viruses and spyware.
Note: Be advised, DISA Home Use licensing for McAfee Internet Security is for personal/privately purchased devices only. Do not install McAfee Internet Security on Government Furnished Equipment (GFE).
