Independent Research Firm Cites Trend Micro as a Leader in Enterprise Email Security

HONG KONG, CHINA – Media OutReach – May 20, 2019 – Trend Micro
Incorporated
( TYO: 4704 ; TSE: 4704 ), a global leader in cybersecurity
solutions, today announced that it has been named a
leader in enterprise email security in The Forrester Wave™: Enterprise Email Security, Q2 2019 report.
Trend Micro earned the highest possible score in the “technology leadership”
sub-criterion (under the product strategy criterion), “deployment options” and
“cloud integration,” and received the highest score among all 12 appraised
vendors in the strategy category.

 

Forrester describes Trend Micro with comments including,
“Clients cite effectiveness, ease of deployment, and configurability as
strengths.” Forrester additionally said, “Enterprises seeking a solution for
defending against malicious and malware-laden emails should consider Trend
Micro.”

 

“The number one threat vector continues to be email, which
drives our commitment to continued innovation,” said Wendy Moore, Vice
President of Product Marketing for Trend Micro. “Analyst evaluations are
critical for solution assessment. In my view, this recent report takes into
account our newer artificial intelligence (AI) features such as writing style
analysis and computer vision, alongside solutions to protect cloud email
platforms like Office 365 and Gmail that collectively helped us block over 41.5
billion threats in 2018.”

 

Nearly 86% of all threats blocked by Trend Micro last year came
via email. Phishing, business email compromise (BEC), malicious URLs,
malevolent attachments and accidental and deliberate data loss are all common
challenges.

 

Enterprises that use Trend Micro get a winning formula of
decades of email security expertise combined with the strategic vision to
anticipate the next threats. This combination continues to position Trend Micro
as a forefront of the industry.

 

A cross-generational blend of security techniques is the best
agreed upon approach to achieve comprehensive protection against these and
other threats. One of these techniques includes Writing Style DNA, an
AI-powered tool which helps to spot BEC scammers by analysing email content. To
date this has identified 5,400 attacks at 160 organizations, resulting in
potential savings for customers of $858m. Another leading feature from Trend
Micro blends computer vision image analysis technology with machine learning to
“see” fake log-in pages, the result of this protects against phishing and
account takeover.

 

Trend Micro’s email security benefits from intelligence sharing
across all layers of the IT infrastructure to offer connected threat defense.
It is available in multiple deployment options — appliance (physical and
virtual), on-premises software, SaaS service, and as a hybrid solution. Trend
Micro is the only vendor to offer dual layer protection via a cloud-based
API+SMTP solution for advanced threat protection.
