Trend Micro Ensures Total Web Threat Protection

Trend Micro Incorporated, a leader in network antivirus and internet content security software and services, has revealed the state-of-the-art web threat protection technology delivered to customers. New in-the-cloud Trend Micro Web Reputation technology is a key new innovation being added to the Trend Micro multi-layered approach to dealing with evolving multi-component web threats that take advantage of the interactive nature of the internet. Total Web Threat Protection is a key component within Trend Micro Secure Content and Threat Management security solutions portfolio. Owing to the evolution of threats and security solutions created to combat them, independent analyst firm IDC, estimates that the Secure Content and Threat Management market reached $11.6 billion in 2005. The web has evolved to become a primary threat-infection vector for modern-day attacks. Web threats are now often built from multiple components including email and web downloader elements. As email and web threats merge, solutions are needed that provide feedback between these two areas, enabling networks to be centrally managed and protected from all of these threats. As a leading content-security company, Trend Micro is an expert in both messaging security and web security with long-standing solutions that work together to deliver rapid, effective, total web threat protection. Trend Micro focuses on providing total web protection, wherever web threats can be most effectively thwarted: in the cloud, at the gateway, and on the endpoint. Traditional scan-based security solutions alone no longer provide effective protection from these insidious threats; instead, organisations need to deploy a multi-layered, multi-component set of techniques that are flexible and adaptable to address evolving web threats. Most URL-filtering and content-inspection solutions only protect reactively against known threats.
