As a complementary line of defense to inbound SMTP-focused email scanning solutions, Trend Micro InterScan Web Security Suite v2.0 is designed to prevent users from becoming victims of phishers, who send out seemingly legitimate emails that are designed to deceive users to go to fake Web sites and give out personal information such as credit card numbers or passwords.

Spyware, typically designed to capture and send information about a users Web surfing habits, can also be created for malicious purposes, like establishing backdoors, recording keystrokes, and capturing personal information. Trend Micros scanning engine is designed to block known malicious spyware and allows IT administrators to block other unwanted spyware, helping to protect corporate data, passwords, email addresses and confidential information, free system resources and reduce spyware-associated crashes.

By reducing inappropriate Web usage, companies can more productively use network resources, increase employee productivity, and reduce exposure to security threats and potential legal liability.

The Web is an increasingly critical business tool, but also a potential security, legal and productivity liability for organizations," said Peter Firstbrook, Program Director for META Group. Integrating multiple products required to enforce acceptable use and security policy for all outbound browser-based traffic (the "Web Gateway") is a major pain point for organizations. We expect Web Gateway tools, such as URL filtering, antivirus/anti-spyware, and active content control tools, will merge in major vendor platforms to simplify implementation of secure Internet access.
