McAfee's real revenue sources aren't necessarily from their end-user security software that you can pick up at any consumer outlet.

The big money comes from their deep-seated integration in the Federal sector with their enterprise management/security software (HBSS.) They are neck deep in the Navy, Army, Marine, Air Force, several significant security firms (Northrop Grumman), and more federal agencies than you can shake a stick at.

The contract with HP/Navy/Marines is worth billions of dollars all on it's own.

Couple this with their upcoming acquisition of Trust Digital in order to stretch out their security software on to mobile phones, and you have a company that an investment can't really go wrong in.

Be weary of listening to those basing their opinions of McAfee on the performance of consumer anti-virus. That is a minimal portion of their business!

This company is about to acquire Trust Digital which has a strong foothold in the mobile digital market. Security on smart phones in going to be a big problem in the near future.
