6. TrendLab stands for: Over 800 experts in 15 local offices across the globe; 24/7 customer support; Client support and updating of threat signatures in real time; BUT: low threat detection levels and long new threat response times, which cannot be explained even by more thorough testing of updates April23, 2005 became a black day in the history of Trend Micro. On that day the company released a new database update for its products. However, when users updated their databases an unexpected problem occurred: their computers either completely refused to run or became so “thoughtful” that nearly completely stopped responding to commands. The defective update uploaded by the Manila center was accessible on the developer’s website for about an hour and a half from about 7.30 am. Trend Micro received failure reports from over 300,000 users. Users in Japan were hit hardest, but complaints also came from Australia, the United States and some European countries. In Japan the local area networks of several large companies were paralyzed, including East Japan Railway Co and the Asahi and Yomiuri daily newspapers. Due to this incident Trend Micro stock lost 4.2% of its value. Fact 4: Antivirus laboratory - TrendLab

7. VirusLab is located in asingle research center in Moscow. Most experts are located in one place and are not distributed geographically. This makes it possible to train new analysts and share expert knowledge with minimal delays. The system for collecting malicious program samples is geographically distributed, with honeypots placed in numerous locations across the globe, enabling analysts to receive samples practically immediately after they appear “in the wild”. Kaspersky Lab has developed unique tools for automating collection and processing of malicious program samples. Each virus analyst uses these tools to analyze malware samples and add their signatures to antivirus databases. In most cases this takes just a few minutes. When the analysis is completed and a relevant signature has been added to the antivirus database (it takes several seconds to add a signature to the antivirus database), the updates are automatically tested. Performing multiple operations in parallel accelerates the update testing process, which takes less than an hour. Fact 4: Kaspersky Lab virus laboratory - VirusLab

14. Fact 7: Minimal load on the system

15. Fact8: Home users need adequate protection *Anti-Malware.ru ** PC Professionell

16. Fact9: In today’s world of threats a company needs integrated protection!

17. Fact10: Integrated and effective protection in one product for workstations

18. Fact11: Solutions for filtering all types of traffic at the gateway level

19. Fact 12: A fully-functional security administration tool is needed

20. Trend Micro offers its users additional software solutions (Outbreak Management Services), using the currently trendy word “services” in the title and declaring it proactive: Vulnerability Assessment Service (VAS): detection of vulnerabilities and isolation of vulnerable devices from the rest of the network Outbreak Prevention Service (OPS): in the event of an outbreakTrend Micro will release special policies (e.g. to close specific ports) in order to stop the outbreak before the relevant updates are available Damage Cleanup Service (DCS):cleanup after an infection Fact 13: Trend Micro Outbreak Management Services

21. These solutions: Were developed due to an inability to release signatures for new malicious programs within a short time of their appearance Trend Micro is forced to take additional measures for the protection of users before the signatures are released and to help mitigate the consequences of infection Are essentially not proactive (in spite of Trend Micro declarations), because they require constant updating like classical signature-based methods Require additional subscription for an additional charge comparable to the cost of the antivirus solution itself Fact 13: Trend Micro Outbreak Management Services

22. Kaspersky Lab customers do not require such additional tools to supplement their antivirus solutions: VirusLab rapidly responds to new threats and ensures a high level of malicious software detection (confirmed by AV-Test.org, AV-comparatives.org, VB100% etc.) After detecting and removing a malicious object Kaspersky Lab solutions are able to roll back all malicious changes made to the system (records in system files and the registry, modified data, etc.) The system is restored even after modifications made by unknown malicious processes detected by the Proactive Defense module Unique technologies for self-defense and treatment of active infections (AdvancedDisinfection) successfully mitigate outbreak consequences even on infected machines Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Windows Servers are able to block access of infected workstations to the file server Fact 13: Trend Micro Outbreak Management Services

23. Kaspersky Lab products are cheaper than Trend Micro products Renewal of a Trend Micro product license costs 30% of the base price, while the figure for Kaspersky Lab is 70%. At first glance, this makes Trend Micro products a better buy, BUT: Trend Micro solutions are cheaper only in the long-term perspective Kaspersky Lab solutions include support provided by the company, while users of Trend Micro products can count only on support by local partners Direct support by Trend Micro is a premium service and its cost often exceeds the cost of the solution supported. Fact 14: Cost of solutions
