MEDIA RELEASE
Trend Micro Announces All-in-One Enterprise Security for Mobile Devices
Trend Micro™ Mobile Security 5.0 protects enterprise data on mobile devices from loss or theft. Newly-added data
encryption and authentication, along with firewall, intrusion detection and malware protection are all managed by a
single console.
Auckland, New Zealand – November 6, 2007 – Trend Micro Incorporated, a leader in network antivirus and content security
software and services, today announced the latest version of its mobile device security solution, at the Gartner ITxpo
in Cannes, France, available to the market in December 2007. The release of Trend Micro Mobile Security (TMMS) 5.0,
girded with data encryption and authentication, mitigates mobile security challenges such as security breaches and data
leakage while allowing enterprise administrators to manage security for handheld devices from a single console.
Mobile devices have become small, powerful computers with large data storage capacities and growing network bandwidth. A
remote and mobile workforce utilising mobile applications on their handhelds are at risk for losing confidential and
sensitive information critical to their companies. Mobile applications such as push email, customer relationship
management, and field service automation boost convenience and productivity, but make data vulnerable. Enterprises need
to ensure that both data and mobile devices are secure and protected.
TMMS 5.0 features new data encryption and authentication capabilities: If a mobile device is lost or stolen, the
business-critical data contained in it is encrypted unless it is unlocked with a password. Data on devices that do not
comply with policies can be wiped out by administrators. The anti-malware features block viruses, worms, Trojans and SMS
text message spam. Built-in firewall and Intrusion Detection System (IDS) protects against hackers, intrusions and
denial-of-service attacks – all potential threats to mobile devices.
“Businesses are dispatching workers outside the corporate structure, and are moving them through a variety of wireless
networks. Workers are going through airports, hotels, restaurants, and homes to do their jobs,” said Thomas Miller,
global vice president and general manager of the Enterprise Business Unit. “Mobile devices that contain confidential
data are not only at risk for viruses, worms, Trojans and spam, they're also at risk for theft or accidental loss. Trend
Micro Mobile Security 5.0 provides total mobile protection through a single, compact application.”
TMMS 5.0 uses the OfficeScan™ Client/Server Edition (OSCE) 8.0 console which also manages medium business and enterprise
PC and server security. By installing TMMS 5.0 onto their OSCE 8.0 console, existing customers use a single console to
manage mobile devices, desktop PCs and enterprise servers. Customers not presently using OSCE 8.0 receive an OSCE 8.0
console license with their TMMS 5.0 purchase.
Trend Micro Mobile Security 5.0 supports multiple leading platforms such as Windows Mobile™ 5.0 (Smartphone) Windows
Mobile 6.0 (Standard Edition); Windows Mobile 5.0 (PocketPC) Windows Mobile 6.0 (Classic and Professional); and Symbian
S60/3rd Edition (Nokia E-Series.)
