Trend Micro Announces Titanium™ 2012 Protection for Your Digital Life

Empowers social media and Internet users against even the most sophisticated security threats

OTTAWA, Aug. 22, 2011 /CNW/ - Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), a global leader in Internet security solutions, today announced a family of security tools designed to protect all aspects of consumers' digital lives. Trend Micro™ Titanium™ 2012 is designed to empower consumers against all malicious threats, no matter how they are delivered, where they try to hide, or what connected device is in use. Building upon award-winning protection first introduced in 2010, Titanium 2012 provides complete, overall protection against increasingly sophisticated threats to the digital lifestyle, protecting everything from family photographs to family finances; online shopping to Facebooking; mobile computing to game-playing - no matter whether the preferred device is a laptop, a smart phone, a tablet, or a fully-loaded gaming PC.

"Trend Micro is committed to empowering online users and their families to live their digital lives to the fullest, without fear or hesitation," said Carol Carpenter, Trend Micro's executive general manager for the Consumer business unit. "As consumers continue to take advantage of all the Internet has to offer, we continue our commitment to enhancing the protection our products provide. Our innovative cloud approach has enabled us to proactively defend our customers' online experience. Our new up-to-the-minute features such as social media and mobile protection to ensure all aspects of the digital lifestyle can be made secure."

Titanium 2012 is powered by the Trend Micro™ Smart Protection Network™ infrastructure, providing consumers with robust threat protection.  Smart Protection Network technology has been ranked #1 in protection by three independent labs across 10 individual tests since September 2009. Titanium 2012 is a cloud based solution utilizing less than half the disk space and memory of other security products while providing up-to -the-minute protection and proactively stops threats before they reach the consumer, all with a user-friendly, "set-and-forget" user interface.

Titanium 2012 's new security enhancements include a tool to eliminate programs posing as antivirus software (Fake AV), proactive botnet and PE Virus protection, protection against malware packer technology, as well as a tool to visually identify safe and malicious links on social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter.

Trend Micro provides mobile security for smart phones and tablets, including robust tools for Android devices with Trend Micro™ Mobile Security Personal Edition and file and folder synchronization and backup through Trend Micro™ SafeSync™online service.   Titanium 2012 also includes enhancements to Titanium's Parental Controls, Behavioral Monitoring, and Rootkit detection and removal.   In a recent test conducted by AVTest.org, Titanium 2012 showed a 60% improvement in detecting and removing Rootkits, a difficult to detect, subversive form of malware.

Titanium 2012 is available in three packages; each designed to meet specific needs of families and individuals. A fun "skin" feature also offers consumers the opportunity to completely customize the look of their digital life protection.
