Case Study: McAfee achieves faster, data-driven decision-making and greater agility with Microsoft Power BI

McAfee - Customer Case Study

McAfee, a large pure‑play cybersecurity company that spun off from Intel, needed to relaunch as a cloud‑first, mobile‑first organization to maintain speed, agility, and a secure reputation in an IoT world. To modernize collaboration, identity, device management and analytics, McAfee adopted Microsoft Power BI alongside the Microsoft 365 suite (Office 365, Windows 10, Azure AD, Intune, Teams, OneDrive, Planner) to provide secure mobility, single sign‑on, and real‑time teamwork.

Microsoft Power BI and Microsoft Services enabled a rapid cloud rollout—Microsoft 365 was deployed to 7,500 employees and 2,000 contractors in under 2.5 months—delivering single sign‑on via Azure AD, mobile management with Intune, collaborative workspaces in Teams, and SharePoint/OneDrive access. The result: eliminated VPN constraints, faster provisioning and time‑to‑market, measurable productivity gains (50 IT leaders using Teams for core initiatives, call‑center contractors gaining faster access to resources), and enhanced analytics capability through Microsoft Power BI to drive business intelligence and operational insight.
