Yes, Trend Micro’s current products do detect Web threats and bot code that are installed on an infected computer. Trend Micro Web Protection Add-On is a trial primarily designed to demonstrate the power of Trend Micro’s Web Reputation technology to new customers. For a list of Trend Micro solutions that already include Trend Micro Web Reputation technology, please refer to Q6 above. Note also that products currently available use signature-based bot technology. Trend Micro Web Protection Add-On is using new dedicated, event-based behavioral technology that does not require signatures and detects bot activity in real time. This means that Trend Micro Web Protection Add-On has a reduced need for regular updates and consumes fewer resources on the user’s computer. Updates are managed by Trend Micro “in the cloud,” which means the application is always up-to-date.
