Trend Micro ServerProtect for EMC Celerra

Overview:

In a networked environment, a single piece of malware can spread quickly, because it is difficult to quarantine infected users. The more that users share files by way of servers and storage systems, the greater the risk of network damage caused by infected files and of intellectual property theft by data stealing malware. With continuous expansion of data capacity, completing the full cycle of a scheduled scan can be a time consuming task for administrators. To effectively protect file storage systems, enterprises need comprehensive, real-time scanning capabilities which can take effect as users continuously access files from storage devices on the network.

Trend Micro™ ServerProtect™ is designed to provide network-wide, comprehensive antimalware scanning for the NetApp Filer and EMC Celerra lines of data storage systems. Managed through an intuitive, portable console, ServerProtect provides centralized malware scanning, cleanup, pattern file updates, and event reporting with enterprise-class performance and automation.

Prevent malware from stealing valuable enterprise information or from spreading debilitating attacks through your network by blocking them at the point of storage. Trend Micro ServerProtect for EMC Celerra, the industry’s most reliable and high-performing security solution for the EMC platform, detects and removes viruses and spyware from files and compressed files in real time. ServerProtect delivers 24x7 anti-malware protection with automatic, incremental updates. Centralized management of servers via a web-based console simplifies network protection.

Trend Micro™ is a global leader in the overall server-based antimalware software market, with antimalware products and services designed to maximize server security, while enhancing and complementing overall Enterprise Security.
