"Our new security offering powered by McAfee will enable consumers to do everything from surfing the Web to shopping online with much greater peace of mind."Īmong the utilities included in the Cox Security Suite, I can mention McAfee VirusScan Plus, McAfee Privacy Service and McAfee SiteAdvisor.

The new Cox Security Suite, powered by McAfee, will be officially rolled out, in the first months of 2008, and will include several utilities powered by the Santa Clara based company.
