Trend Micro InterScan Messaging Security Suite

Overview:

More than 90% of all email is reported as spam by Trend Micro customers, and an ever-growing number contain security threats—whether it’s malicious code or a link to an infected site. These attacks are designed to trick even your savviest employees, and without effective gateway protection, your organization is vulnerable to infection, data loss, compliance risks, reputation damage, and lost business.

Plus multi-layered spam protection blocks more unwanted mail, while award-winning malware protection stops the broad range of blended threats.
