Cylance and McAfee antivirus
Hi,
I checked the Threat Prevention msi properties from the child installer and it is possible to add TP, web filtering and firewall modules at the time of installng McAfee. We use Forticlient as a firewall and web filtering so we are deploying policy based encryption and Advance Threat Prevention (Cylance) in all laptops.
I would like to know if it is advisable to have installed two anti-malware solutions (TP + ATP) at the same time?
This is what the console shows when you enable all the features (TP disabled at the moment):
Thanks
Jose

@josebilbao,
I apologize about the delay as I just took over the social media activity for the Dell Data Security team. Going to post a reply here in case anyone else runs across this issue.
Short answer: Yes you can run Threat Protection and Advanced Threat Prevention at the same time. You will need to add some exclusions to TP for Cylance which are listed at: https://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/04/sln303898/dell-endpoint-security-suite-enterprise-system-requirements?lang=en (under Software > Windows tab).
Your plugins also look fine as you are running policy based encryption instead of SED.
Let me know if you run into any other issues.

Hello,
I've reviewed the properties of the Threat Prevention msi installer and it seems that it's possible to include TP, web filtering, and firewall modules during the installation of McAfee. However, we're already using Forticlient as our firewall and web filtering solution, so we're planning to deploy policy-based encryption and Advanced Threat Prevention (Cylance) on all laptops.
I wanted to ask whether it's advisable to have both TP and ATP installed as two anti-malware solutions on the same system simultaneously?
The console currently shows all features enabled except for TP, which is disabled at the moment.

It is not advisable to install two anti-malware solutions on the same system as they can interfere with each other and potentially cause conflicts that may lead to system instability or reduced security.
Having multiple anti-malware solutions installed can cause conflicts in the system as they may try to access the same files or processes simultaneously, leading to performance issues and other problems. Additionally, having multiple solutions may create false positives and false negatives, which could lead to missed detections or unnecessary actions being taken.
It is generally recommended to choose a single anti-malware solution that meets your organization's security needs and use it consistently across all endpoints. This will ensure that your security policies and configurations are uniform and will simplify management and maintenance tasks.
I hope this clears out your confusion. You can ask if you need any other info.

Antivirus software is a crucial part of keeping our digital lives secure, and both Cylance and McAfee are well-known names in the cybersecurity industry.
It employs artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms to proactively identify and prevent threats in real time.
McAfee, on the other hand, is a veteran in the antivirus industry and offers a wide range of security products. It provides comprehensive protection against viruses, malware, phishing attempts, and other online threats.

But the question is how to tackle it now as no accurate solution is currently provided for that?

Regarding the guide here :https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000127053/dell-endpoint-security-suite-enterprise-system-requirements
Does separate conditions apply for windows, linux and iOs? As mentioned in the article.
