The partnership grants Telstra customers access to McAfee’s security solutions such as antivirus, parental controls, identity protection, secure VPN to protect and secure multiple devices.
“A recent McAfee study found 27% of Australians surveyed reported attempted account theft and 23% had experienced financial account information leaks,” said McAfee senior vice president global sales and operations Pedro Gutierrez.
McAfee’s integrated consumer security platform offers mobile security solutions to protect customers’ privacy and identity while blocking viruses, malware, spyware, and ransomware attacks.

Telstra’s customers can take advantage of these capabilities and protect themselves from additional threats including potential hacks, identity theft, and broader gaps in online and mobile security.
“This partnership with McAfee helps drive our mission to build a safe and secure connected future where everyone can thrive, and further complements Telstra’s T25 ambition to extend our network leadership position by delivering greater value to our customers,” said Telstra cybersecurity executive and group owner Matthew O’Brien.
Telstra customers can simply go in-store, online or to their MyTelstra app to activate device security.
All eligible Telstra customers can try device security for three months on Telstra, then auto-roll onto US$10 ($14.63)/month after.
