BigFix and Trend Micro have announced a joint licensing agreement that will result in a Trend Micro endpoint security management solution powered by the BigFix platform that scales to the requirements of very large enterprises with more than 10,000 endpoints.
The first in a series of new endpoint modules anticipated to be available is the Trend Micro Web Protection Module, designed to proactively protect endpoints against Web threats and provide security enhancements to the BigFix platform. The Trend Micro Web Protection Module, which also works with existing endpoint anti-malware solutions, leverages the Trend Micro Smart Protection Network - a security infrastructure that uses light-weight clients to access its unique in-the-cloud correlation of email - Web and file reputation technologies, and threat databases. Customers' protection is automatically updated and strengthened as more products, services and users access the network, creating a real-time neighborhood watch protection service for its users.
BigFix is built on a high performance real-time, single agent, single management infrastructure architecture that provides continuous security, configuration assessment and remediation on the endpoints themselves regardless of connectivity - public or private networks, connected or disconnected. This architecture makes BigFix scalable and adaptive on IT infrastructures ranging up to 100,000s of endpoints.
