Oct. 12, 2009 (PR Newswire) -- CUPERTINO, Calif., Oct. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Trend Micro announced today a new Threat Management Services offering that provides enterprises with "network security overwatch" - a security layer that strengthens an organization's existing security infrastructure against active, data-stealing malware that have evaded detection from their existing security solutions. Trend Micro(TM) Threat Management Services uncover these threats and provides proactive early warning, containment and remediation; enterprises gain increased protection, greater visibility and less management complexity.
Unlike security solutions that are unaware of active data-stealing malware infiltrations within the network, Threat Management Services strengthen protection of corporate assets. It achieves this through three key components:
-- A network anti-malware technology that identifies, analyzes and
mitigates corporate-wide threat security issues.
-- A signature-less cleanup technology effective against known and new
malware.
-- Trend Micro global threat security experts to secure corporate data and
offer security expertise for IT departments; services also include 24/7
malware infection monitoring, remediation and security planning.

"I have not seen the equal of the Trend Micro Threat Management Services in the market -- it is very unique," said Scott Forrest, network manager in IT at GUESS, Inc. "It showed us exactly where our security solutions were falling short. Within 20 to 30 minutes, and with very little up-front work, it was up and running. It was intuitive for our engineers right off the bat, and we could see what was happening on nodes and on the network in general. We hadn't had this visibility before, and the service gave us great insights into our overall threat security environment."
Threat Management Services consists of three packages that provide a range of threat detection and security planning advisory services. They include:
-- Trend Micro(TM) Threat Discovery Services: This package includes the
