Portfolio Now Offers Advanced Solutions for Every Business Size and
in Multiple Form Factors CUPERTINO, Calif., Aug. 14
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Trend Micro Incorporated,
(TSE:4704)(NASDAQ:TMIC), a leader in network antivirus and content
security software and services, today announced InterScan(TM)
Gateway Security Appliance, the latest addition to its portfolio of
gateway security solutions that provide choice to customers,
independent of form factor or business size. Trend Micro(TM)
InterScan Gateway Security Appliance is designed for mid-sized
organizations looking for an easy to install, easy to maintain
content security solution. While protecting corporate and personal
data, the appliance supports employee productivity and it includes
an anti-bot functionality to help prevent internal PC's from
becoming zombies. This new all-in-one secure content management
appliance incorporates antivirus, anti-spyware, anti-spam, content
filtering and URL filtering into one seamless unit. Unlike UTM
(unified threat management) appliances, InterScan Gateway Security
Appliance sits behind a customer's existing firewall/VPN solution
adding an additional layer to their Internet gateway security.
Mid-sized businesses require flexible content security solutions
that can support an often complex and distributed network.
InterScan Gateway Security Appliance provides both ease-of-use and
flexibility with simplified installation through preconfigured
software and hardware. Also comprising heuristic detection
technology and automated, remote cleanup capabilities, InterScan
Gateway Security Appliance enables organizations to enforce their
gateway content security with a single product. Trend Micro
originally pioneered gateway-based antivirus in 1996, and according
to research by independent analyst firm, IDC, has since this time
continually held the antivirus gateway market leadership position
(source: IDC, Worldwide Antivirus 2005 - 2009 Forecast and
Analysis, December 2005). Trend Micro InterScan(TM) VirusWall(TM)
was the first gateway antivirus product on the market, it is
available on a choice of platforms including Linux, and following
recent product enhancements Trend Micro has reintroduced the
award-winning solution now with integrated anti-spyware and
anti-bot protection. Gateway security protection has proven to be
one of the most effective and important solutions in the battle
against cyber crime. By blocking malicious malware at the Internet
Gateway, businesses can reduce the risk of infiltration and
infection early on, before the malware reaches the desktop. "Trend
Micro maintains a customer focused business environment combined
with ongoing threat research, in order to provide comprehensive,
reliable security for our customers' digital information and
assets," said Steve Quane, general manager Trend Micro small and
medium sized business operations. "By developing different types of
solutions and services for different sized organizations, Trend
Micro solutions continue to protect as customers' businesses grow."
Through a comprehensive portfolio of gateway based solutions Trend
Micro offers customers a choice of services, hardware and software
solutions dependant on their business need and business size. For
medium-sized organizations, Trend Micro has launched a choice of
solutions, dependant on infrastructure and business need. Trend
Micro has levered its expertise in enterprise security and small
business security to develop new hardware, software and services
that fit appropriately into the evolving mid-market infrastructure.
In May 2006 Trend Micro launched the Trend Micro Email Security
Service. Aimed at the small and medium sized business, Email
Security Service is a hosted email protection service that provides
a cost-effective alternative to managing onsite hardware or
software at the messaging gateway. Trend Micro Email Security
Service is available initially in the United States and Australia.
Smaller organizations are supported through Trend Micro worry-free
solutions, providing smaller businesses with easy to install, easy
to deploy and maintain, worry-free security protection. The single
solution offers a combination of features including antivirus,
anti-spyware and anti-spam. "The option of a security appliance at
the gateway can yield significant savings for SMB customers from a
management perspective," observed Chris Christiansen, vice
president, Security Products & Services for IDC. "Having a
single cohesive security architecture, such as that offered by
Trend Micro, to handle multiple types of threats, provides
simplified means to enable security policies with fewer resources."
Trend Micro has also continued the development of its enterprise
business solutions to provide advanced security with the
flexibility, manageability and scalability required by large
companies. Enterprise solutions are designed to help businesses
enforce security policies, protect against infections and enable IT
departments manage their solutions with minimal administration.
Internet gateway solutions for the large enterprise include
hardware and software solutions in multiple form- factors.
Solutions include the InterScan family of products, including the
recently launched InterScan Web Security Appliance, InterScan Web
Security Suite and InterScan Messaging Security Suite. Additionally
