McAfee is offering a few incentives to encourage partners to look into this opportunity. McAfee Firewall Enterprise for Riverbed will be incorporated into the McAfee SecurityAlliance Deal Registration Program, which offers up to an additional 15% margin advantage to partners when they invest time and resources in McAfee opportunities. This program is for new deal registrations only and goes hand in hand with the deal protection policy, which protects partners by providing only the registering partner with access to special pricing. The 10-15% applies on all McAfee’s network security and firewall platforms.
