ARRIS Launches First Gateway with ARRIS Secure Home Internet by McAfee®; Exclusively at Best BuySUWANEE, Ga., July 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- ARRIS International plc (NASDAQ: ARRS) today launched the ARRIS SURFboard® SBG7580-AC cable modem gateway with ARRIS® Secure Home Internet by McAfee® exclusively* at BestBuy.com. A combination gigabit cable modem, Wi-Fi® router, Ethernet hub and home internet security center, the SBG7580-AC gateway is fast, secure, easy-to-use and eliminates monthly rental fees. As the first broadband gateway featuring McAfee's Secure Home Internet, the SBG7580-AC moves the security burden off your individual connected devices and onto your home internet's first point of entry for easier and better protection. Cyberattacks in the connected home are a growing consumer concern. A recent McAfee study** revealed that 81 percent of consumers think it's important that their online identity and internet-connected devices are secure. As consumers install increasing numbers of connected devices into their home, savvy cybercriminals have morphed their focus to those new devices, knowing that many consumers fail to take the proper security precautions to protect themselves. Today, any device that connects to the internet is a potential target if not properly secured. This is why ARRIS partnered with McAfee, a leading independent cybersecurity company, to enable best-in-class security at the point where data flows in and out of the home. Product Highlights
"We pioneered the digital life protection space where we made it our mission to protect all the devices that our customers use," said John Giamatteo, Executive Vice President, Consumer Business Group at McAfee. "With the integration of Secure Home Internet into the ARRIS gateway, we are delivering on this mission with an industry leader. The best security software is the kind that people actually use, and together with ARRIS, McAfee is making it easier than ever for consumers to protect every connected device in the home."
