Alliance Partners

Cisco and Trend Micro, long-time strategic partners, share a vision of integrating security software and intelligence into the network infrastructure. In a recent collaborative effort, Trend Micro worked closely with Cisco to develop comprehensive and customizable security for select Cisco Adaptive Security Appliances.

“Trend Micro’s award-winning gateway protection allows us to deliver the value of integrated, multi-function security at the network edge. This new addition also underscores Cisco’s Self-Defending Network security strategy which helps organizations around the world identify, prevent, and adapt to the changing Internet threat environment and help protect critical investments,” said Richard Palmer, senior vice president and general manager, Cisco Security Technology Group.

Cisco and Trend Micro are also working to revolutionize home Internet security. By integrating Trend Micro security into Linksys by Cisco wireless routers, the two Alliance Partners have extended protection beyond PCs to other home-network devices, including online game consoles, Wi-Fi enabled phones, and personal media players. Cisco and Trend Micro also offer Home Network Defender, an Internet security service that features safe web surfing, parental controls, and user-activity reporting embedded on Linksys by Cisco wireless-N home routers.

Dell and Trend Micro collaborate to help small and medium businesses solve their IT security challenges. Together they are offering Trend Micro™ Worry-Free™ Business Security to Dell’s small and medium businesses worldwide. With customers’ evolving security needs in mind, Dell and Trend Micro worked closely to develop a customized user interface, simplifying endpoint security management for business owners and IT administrators. With lower-cost, easy-to-manage security that delivers better protection, business owners can focus on business instead of worrying about IT security.

RSA, the Security Division of EMC, has partnered with Trend Micro to leverage the real-time threat data collected and correlated by the Trend Micro™ Smart Protection Network™. The data is used to enhance capabilities of the RSA® FraudAction Service to stop online attacks that can lead to identity theft.

As a result of the relationship, the RSA FraudAction service has increased global fraud intelligence on suspicious crimeware—to more effectively defend customers against online crime.

“This inventive collaboration between two leaders in online security is another step ahead in the fight against the global cyber-threat which continues to escalate as online fraudsters become more organized and effective than ever”, said Tom Corn, vice president of Product Marketing at RSA. “The ability to combat cybercriminals requires a far more purposeful collaboration within the industry – such as that between RSA and Trend Micro – and a strong security ecosystem focused on mitigating risk.”

HP and Trend Micro have collaborated on many fronts to secure business technology. HP selected Trend Micro™ Client/Server/ Messaging Suite for Small and Medium Businesses for pre-installation on industry-leading HP ProLiant servers. The integrated solution helps reduce deployment effort and administrative costs, while delivering industry leading anti-malware and antispam.

“Trend’s open approach to business and technology collaboration is a strong fit for us, and we look forward to working with them to deliver solutions that provide better business outcomes for our customers,” said Ron Eller, vice president and general manager of Enterprise Solutions Alliances at HP.

In addition to being Alliance Partners, Trend Micro is an IBM Premier Business Partner, a high status accorded to industry partners that have demonstrated superior skills and market success, and have actively collaborated with IBM to deliver significant client value through innovative solutions.

For nearly a decade, Trend Micro has worked with IBM to offer a wide range of security solutions for the IBM platform and IBM applications. Most recently, the two companies co-developed a new convergence solution for endpoint systems management and security — the most integrated and comprehen-sive solution of its kind.

IBM and Trend Micro also share a long history of collaborating to optimize mail server security. As a result, Trend Micro ScanMail for Lotus Domino is the only security solution designed for all 64-bit platforms supported by IBM Lotus Domino Servers, including zLinux.

In addition to being Alliance Partners, Trend Micro is a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner with a long history of developing security for Microsoft environments, including Windows and Exchange.

Trend Micro was the first vendor certified for supporting Microsoft™ Windows™ 7 across the company's flagship consumer, small to medium business, and enterprise solutions.

"We are working closely with Trend Micro to ensure that Windows 7 provides the security tools that workers need to be productive—whenever and wherever they are using their PCs."
