Security Week – Eduard Kovacs
Private equity giant Symphony Technology Group (STG) on Wednesday announced the launch of Trellix, an extended detection and response (XDR) solutions provider created following the merger of McAfee Enterprise and FireEye.

McAfeeâs enterprise business was sold to a consortium led by STG in a $4 billion deal announced in March 2021. A few months later, STG announced the acquisition of FireEye Products â after it split from Mandiant â for $1.2 billion.

In October, the private equity firm said McAfee Enterprise and FireEye Products would merge into a single entity with more than 40,000 customers, 5,000 employees, and nearly $2 billion in annual revenue.

The Trellix platform includes endpoint, cloud, collaboration, data and user, application, and infrastructure security capabilities.
