McAfee Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Uncompromising integrity and professionalism are the cornerstones of McAfee's business. In all that we do, McAfee supports and upholds a set of core values and principles. These values and principles form the foundation of good corporate citizenship and frame McAfee’s relationships with customers, employees, suppliers, and local communities. Through our adherence to ethical business practices, and through timely, accurate, and consistent financial reporting, we continually enhance our value and maintain industry leadership in all aspects of corporate governance.

Our success is dependent on the willingness of each individual to act in accordance with these enduring values and principles. We must remember that misconduct by only a few can seriously discredit McAfee, harm our reputation, and reflect poorly on all of us. No success is worth the expense of compromising ethical behavior.

Our Code of Conduct sets the standard for how we work together to develop and deliver products, how we protect the value of McAfee, and how we work with customers, suppliers, and others.

The Code affirms our Five Principles of Conduct:

  • Integrity at Our Core
  • Integrity with Each Other
  • Integrity in Business Interactions
  • Integrity in Business Practices
  • Integrity with Company Assets and Reputation

The McAfee Ethics and Compliance Helpline is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for employees, customers, distributors, resellers, and suppliers to ask questions, request guidance, or report a concern. If you have an ethics or compliance concern, you are encouraged to report your concern to McAfee as soon as possible.
