[OPLINTECH] Trend Micro

Ex-Trend (and Norton, in another life) deployer here.  Since virus checkers get only about 60% of the viruses they encounter, even older viruses, on Windows I have found it cost-effective to use Microsoft’s free scanner (MSE) and avoid any third party products.  Our incident levels have not gone up.

On the Mac, the clamav scanner front end ClamXav seems to work just fine, though Apple too has a built-in threat checker that is invisible to the user.  Linux—clamav.

Dear Techs,

It's approaching time to renew the license. I'm interested in feedback on Trend Micro. I'm a new user to it, and I don't fully realize what and how it's doing for me.

Are there alternatives that provide the same 'value'.

Thanks in advance.

Tim
