    Trend Micro Worry-Free Security Benefits

    The threat landscape used to be clearer - you kept the bad stuff away from your network and kept valuable data from being lost. Now, it is harder to differentiate the good from the bad. Traditional, signature-based approaches to antivirus security alone are only a weak line of defense against ransomware and unknown threats that often slip through. Installing multiple anti- malware tools on a single endpoint quickly results in confusion.

    Endpoint Security Benefits
    • Protects against known and unknown threats with a single agent on the endpoint.
    • Always utilizes the best technology for the situation, including machine learning, behavioral analysis, application controls, as well as web and file reputation.
    • Ensures the industry’s fastest vulnerability screening based on leading vulnerability research.
