BANGALORE: Trend Micro Incorporated, network antivirus and Internet content security software and services provider, on Friday revealed web threat protection technology delivered to customers.
Trend Micro Web Reputation technology, is a multi-layered approach to deal with evolving multi-component web threats that take advantage of the interactive nature of the Internet.

With such insidious and often targeted attacks, a normally trustworthy site could unwittingly become hijacked by malicious code. Trend Micro Total Web Threat Protection provides security readings and restrictions that lessen the risk of confidential information leakage and identity loss, and damage to company image as a result of Web-based attacks,” Chen added.
Trend Micro maps over 300 million domains and over 2 billion hits daily. Trend Micro web reputation technology uses the industry’s longest domain reputation history and provides updates on a continual basis, Trend Micro said in a statement.
