CUPERTINO, Calif., Nov. 22, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), a global cloud security leader, today announced that Trend Micro™ Worry-Free™ Business Security once again proved its superior protection in real-world tests. When compared to Worry-Free Business Security's powerful threat protection, no other SMB security product can match its reliability and depth of protection. The Trend Micro security solution, uniquely engineered for small and mid-size business IT environments, leads the industry in overall protection against web threats – as measured by independent test labs.*

With today's threat landscape, SMB customers need superb, enterprise-strength protection that's easy to use and customized for smaller organizations. Worry-Free Business Security is the most comprehensive solution for SMBs.

Traditional static detection testing only identifies infected files after they've landed on the computer. That's just not good enough. Trend Micro identifies and stops web threats at their source – blocking access to web pages and URLs before they download malware to computers.

Trend Micro subjects its solutions to rigorous real-world tests that measure the total protection provided by security products – not just scanning for malware files already residing on the computer. Real-world tests evaluate all of a product's defenses. Real-world tests have demonstrated that Worry-Free Business Security is a superior solution.

What happens in real-world testing?

All attack samples are sourced live from the Internet at the time of the test
Attack samples are presented to the tested products simultaneously
Attack samples are presented using realistic attack vectors
All the security layers and countermeasures within a product are given the opportunity to block an attack sample

Trend Micro Worry-Free Business Security is a top-performing endpoint security solution, specifically engineered for SMB environments. The solution provides fast, effective, and simple protection against web viruses, cybercriminals, and data loss, so companies can focus on their business instead of worrying about Internet security.
