Trend Micro announces Network Attached Storage Security with Built-in Antivirus

Trend Micro today announced an NAS (Network Attached Storage) solution that includes built-in antivirus designed to prevent the spread of viruses within workplaces and home offices. Trend Micro NAS Security’s antivirus technology is built directly into the NAS itself and requires no extra installation for fast, simple protection. 

Trend Micro NAS Security is optimized for NAS-based Linux operating systems and helps prevent malware infections. The product provides comprehensive protection against computer viruses, Trojans, and worms. When these files are uploaded to an NAS, Trend Micro NAS Security is able to scan these files in real-time. An intuitive, web-based management console makes it easy to use, while at the same time providing centralized virus scanning, pattern updates, event reporting and antivirus configuration. 

Main features include: 

Powerful antivirus and spyware protection. Detects and removes viruses and spyware using real-time, on-demand and scheduled scans.

Anti-malware policy compliance. Enables antivirus policy enforcement and accelerates automatic updates of virus patterns and scan engines.

Log report. Allows IT administrators to keep logs of malware detection and scan performance.

Currently, Trend Micro NAS Security is found built into select network storage devices by leading NAS vendors.
