Trend Micro Incorporated
(TSE: 4704), a leader in network antivirus and Internet content security
software and services, announced today its message archiving solution
designed to help companies archive with accessibility and encryption,
reduce email management costs, and protect and preserve the integrity of
their electronic data.
Trend Micro(TM) Message Archiver (TMMA) delivers a fast, on-demand
email search capability so employees can quickly access any archived email
without leaving Microsoft(TM) Outlook(TM), or the need for IT support;
installation time averages 30 minutes. The solution's tamper-resistant
design, combined with forensics technology that uses digital fingerprinting
and encryption, ensures that emails are authentic and un-altered for
automatic legal compliance. In today's regulatory environment, this is a
critical component and another reason why analysts predict the message
archiving market will reach $1.37 billion in 2011.(1)
In a recent survey of IT administrators for mid-size companies, more
than three quarters of them cite privacy safeguards to be especially
important in an email archiving solution.(2) Trend Micro Message Archiver's
"privacy- guard," a distinctive feature compared to other solutions, tracks
and logs email searches by authorized users and sends an audit of them to a
designated "data guardian" in order to safeguard employee privacy.
Privacy-guard avoids potential abuse by privileged users and guarantees
email searches occur for valid purposes.
"It's no surprise that email volume for companies is growing rapidly -
nearly everyone uses it on a daily basis. And because of the tremendous
amount of intellectual property that's stored in email, our customers have
been asking for efficient message archiving to complement their Trend Micro
content-security solutions," said Steve Quane, executive general manager
for Trend Micro's small and medium business unit. "Message Archiver
addresses our customers' need for compliance, data protection, authenticity
of data, easy management of large quantities of email, and employee
privacy."
"Trend Micro Message Archiver was a quick installation; it was also
easy to learn how to manage the system - no extra training was needed,"
said Seth Bjorn, network engineer for Goodwill Industries of Orange County.
"As a mid- size company, we need something that is effective but doesn't
consume a lot of time and money. Trend Micro Message Archiver addresses our
need for compliance, our need to store huge amounts of emails securely, and
our need to be able to access and search for these archived emails quickly
and easily."

varies by seat count and price decreases with volume. For the 501-1000 seat
