Memory consumption has decreased by approximately 50 percent over last year’s products, and manual scanning is more than 30 percent faster than competitive products.
Trend Micro has also listened to customer feedback and improved the general user experience. With a simplified installation and setup routine, Trend Micro Internet Security now requires just three steps to complete installation.
Additionally, TrendSecure, introduced last year, is evolving from a resource providing free tools to a platform that delivers Software-as-a-Service to consumers, with a number of key features available in Trend Micro Internet Security Pro.
Protection Against the Latest Malware
Web threats grew by 540 percent between
January 2005 and January 2007, according to research by TrendLabs
- Trend
Micro's global network of research, service and support centers. In order to
combat such insidious threats, Trend Micro has enhanced the anti-malware
protection. New and improved
functionality also includes proactive intrusion blocking, Web threat
protection, enhanced anti-spam capabilities, a two-way firewall and fully
integrated antivirus and anti-spyware engines.
TrendLabs
is committed to constant threat surveillance and attack prevention. Trend Micro customers benefit from TrendLabs'
round-the-clock, real-time threat information and research service which
delivers effective, timely security measures designed to detect, pre-empt, and
eliminate attacks, protecting and informing users as they surf.
Proactive intrusion blocking is a
behavior-based technology that protects computers from unauthorized and
malicious changes. This new technology
boasts non-signature-based, real-time prevention capabilities that dynamically
adapt to new and emerging threats. By
monitoring application activities on a computer, it is able to prevent
malicious changes to a machine, before they can take effect. In addition, the number of alerts is reduced,
because the technology can trace changes to their sources instead of reacting
to them individually.
Trend Micro Web Threat Protection guards
users from the growing number of cyber attacks such as ‘The Italian Job'
through technology that goes beyond traditional URL filtering capabilities and
assesses the safety of a Web page based on a number of factors including age,
content, behavior and reputation. Consumers
will therefore have greater protection without sacrificing the ability to surf
the Web, because Web Threat Protection blocks specific pages and content that
contain malware, rather than blocking an entire website.
