Trend Micro, a leader in security software, has unveiled its Trend Micro Security 10, a security and privacy solution fully compatible with Microsoft Windows 10, which is to be launched later this week.

The new version’s security features are simple-to-use, yet provide state-of-the-art protection for consumers’ data, delivered with optimal performance, said a statement.

It will allow users to securely connect and engage safely online from today’s evolving threat environment, it said.

Trend Micro Security 10 will provide protection against threats and privacy concerns regardless of the device or operating system.

The software will feature protection from exposing private information or becoming susceptible to data-theft and other malicious online threats on both personal and business devices.

Akihiko Omikawa, executive vice president, said: “It’s a fact of life that all laptops, smart phones, PC’s and tablets are susceptible to data theft, and stealing information from one’s digital life is easier than most people think.

“People are accessing the Internet anytime and anywhere. It’s hard to know if personal or business information is being shared without permission. We want to ensure our customers are protected in this fast-changing world, providing them with advanced protection without disruption.”

With the growing number of malicious threats, breaches, and hacks, Trend Micro Security 10 will help people be safe online with its superior phishing detection and industry-leading tools.

These tools will block viruses, spyware, worms and Trojans, preventing their devices from becoming infected.

Trend Micro is adding in new features to its already award-winning protection to further protect customers from the threats of today: from additional social media protection, SSL verification, ransomware and online banking protections.

With this solution, users’ personal information will be far less at risk from being compromised by cybercriminals while maintaining privacy and protection of online activity.

Meanwhile, the Microsoft Windows 10 operating system will be compatible with the Trend Micro Security 10 products including Premium Security 10, Maximum Security 10, Internet Security 10, and Antivirus+ Security 10.

The current Trend Micro customers can upgrade for free to this latest version.

The previous version, Trend Micro Security 2015, is also Windows 10 compatible, if updated before the user upgrades to Windows 10.

The new features added to the solution include cloud storage scanner, secure browser in password manager, ransomware projection and SSL checker within the Trend Protect Toolbar.

“At the end of the day, we are committed to securing individuals’ and businesses’ ability to do things online safely. We know users are socialising, banking and working more online, and our solutions make it possible to do these things with the confidence that Trend Micro Security is helping you stay safe,” Omikawa added. - TradeArabia News Service
