Trend Micro Integrates Protection Against Web Threats Into Cisco Integrated Services Routers
April 2008 by Emmanuelle Lamandé
Trend Micro Incorporated announces that it is extending its relationship with Cisco by integrating Trend Micro Web security services into the Cisco Integrated Services Router (ISR) platform.
The Cisco IOS Content Filtering solution will protect small
businesses, educational institutions, branch offices and retailers from Web-based threats and enforce acceptable use policies for Web traffic.
Cisco IOS Content Filtering, part of the Cisco IOS Integrated Threat Control
framework, monitors and regulates all Web activities by blocking or
restricting access to certain Web sites. By using Trend Micro’s global
network of research, service and support centers committed to constant
threat surveillance and attack prevention, the two companies are better able
to help businesses mitigate the risks of unrestricted Internet use. Network
administrators can use the router management tool to set security policies
using keywords or one, or more, of 80-plus categories to limit Internet
access. While Web threats are a major issue, Trend Micro’s Web threat
protection and URL filtering technologies prevent users from accessing
malicious and inappropriate Web sites, avoiding inappropriate use of company
resources, legal liability and productivity losses.
Availability:
Cisco IOS Content Filtering will be available as an optional subscription
service for the Cisco 800, 1800, 2800, and 3800 Series Integrated Services
Routers. The offering will be sold and supported by Cisco and its authorized
channel partners.
