KUALA LUMPUR, 4 JUNE 2009 – Malaysian small and medium businesses are the target of security firm Trend Micro’s latest security solution.
“If small businesses think increasing protection against threats means decreasing computer performance over time, they need to think again,” said Trend Micro general manager, SMB business unit, Steve Quane.
Quane said the company was building on a ‘worry-free’ promise made five years ago to small businesses with little or no IT support.
“Trend Micro is introducing the latest version of Trend Micro Worry-Free Business Security 6.0, now reinforced with unmatched new features that are powered by the Trend Micro Smart Protection Network,” he said. “This next-generation security infrastructure provides a unique approach to blocking viruses, spyware, spam, and Web threats before they reach business networks.”
“URL Filtering, Smart Scan, which is a breakthrough approach that provides more effective protection than conventional antivirus, are just two of the new features,” Quane said. “Security features are powered by the Trend Micro Smart Protection Network, which are kept constantly updated, with faster scanning, while minimising impact to PCs, with minimal need for user interaction.”
“Trend Micro allows businesses to stop worrying about security so they can focus on their business,” he added.
“Small businesses face the same daunting security challenges associated with protecting crucial data from online threats. However, they normally don't have the staff or other resources required to manage complicated security suites,” said analyst firm IDC's research director of security products, Charles Kolodgy. "For security to be effective within a small business environment, it needs to be routine, automatic, easy, and painless.
