DALLAS and MONACO, Nov. 7,
2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Eva
Chen, CEO of Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE:
4704), a global leader in security software and solutions,
delivered a keynote address at the 83rd INTERPOL General Assembly
taking place in Monaco
Nov. 3-7. Her presentation
highlighted the global threat landscape and emphasized the need for
ongoing cooperation between public and private organizations to
fight cybercrime. Trend Micro was the only security software
provider invited to participate during the event's technology and
cybercrime session.
"The proliferation of cybercrime dictates the need for a global
effort to investigate and ultimately prosecute those responsible
for these acts," said Chen. "It is an honor to have the opportunity
to address a prestigious international audience of leaders to
detail the challenges we face, and encourage sustained partnerships
among the private sector and law enforcement around the world. It
is essential to share both information and resources to keep
criminal elements at bay so technology can be used in a
constructive and beneficial way for the betterment of the global
community."
This event marks 100 years since
the first International Criminal Police Congress was held in
Monaco in 1914. Topics of this
year's event focused on a century of international police
cooperation, as well as INTERPOL's "Turn Back Crime" campaign.
Comprised of delegates from 190 member countries, the assembly
serves as INTERPOL's supreme governing body, and convenes to
discuss policy and resources to support the organization's mission,
as well as elect the executive committee.
In Sept., Trend Micro announced a three-year agreement to
support INTERPOL and its member countries with additional
knowledge, resources and strategies to fight global cybercrime. The
company provides threat information analysis through its Threat
Intelligence Service to investigate, deter and prevent cybercrimes.
An investigation training program also helps to improve techniques
and increase capabilities of member countries. A Trend Micro
security researcher is onsite at the INTERPOL Global Complex for
Innovation (IGCI) in Singapore to
support these initiatives.
