PRESS RELEASE

CUPERTINO, Calif., July 17, 2012 – Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704;TSE: 4704), the global cloud security leader, today announced the launch of Trend Micro Mobile Security (TMMS) 8.0 to give customers the tools to enforce essential corporate security policies while still allowing employees to use their own devices at work.

“Bring your own device – BYOD – creates new challenges for IT as personal mobile tools become important parts of corporate networks and applications,” said Steve Quane, chief product officer, Trend Micro. “TMMS 8.0 gives customers the confidence they need to face these challenges.”

TMMS 8.0 enhances the enforcement of existing password and encryption policies as well as provides more granular remote wipe capabilities. It also introduces a mobile application management system that allows IT to automatically push corporate apps to iOS, Blackberry and Android devices. TMMS 8.0 is conveniently available as a plug-in for the Trend Micro™ OfficeScan™ solution and easily integrates directly into a company’s existing IT management infrastructure, greatly reducing the cost and complexity of deploying a mobile security/management solution.
