Is McAfee owned by Microsoft?

I've heard that Microsoft and McAfee have some sort of partnership, specifically related to addressing ransomware attacks. But I'm not sure if this means Microsoft actually owns McAfee. Could someone clarify the relationship between these two companies? Is McAfee owned by Microsoft?
