With the success of the Best Free Trend AntiVirus Software, Trend Micro constantly updating your antivirus software for the latest malware infection is now a thing of the past.

File reputation is the main innovation of this latest incarnation of the Cupertino, Calif.-company’s enterprise antivirus solution released today.

OfficeScan 10 takes the burden of updating the malware list and analyzing each file on the PC, off from the local machine and on to its security cloud, the Smart Protection Network (SPN).

Enterprises also have the option to run a “private” cloud (using the publisher’s SmartScan Server) to which PCs will connect to, instead of Trend Micro’s SPN.

The new cloud-centric technology reduces by 20 percent the antivirus software footprint on each PC, compared to previous versions, while offering 20 percent better protection overall.

“For 20-years, the pattern file (the database of all the bad files in the world) has always existed on the endpoint… In 2008, Trend Labs, our malware research arm, saw 800 new unique malware threats every single hour. In 2009, we expected that to grow to 1,500, and by 2010, there will be 25,000 threats per hour! And it’s a nightmare for IT administrators who have to check that each PCs are updated with the latest pattern file, ” explains Ron Clarkson, Trend Micro’s director of Endpoint Security.

No more downloads of antivirus updates

With OfficeScan 10, there are no updates being downloaded on users’ PCs; which now query the malware database residing on the enterprise’s private cloud or on SPN. A solution that should greatly simplify the work of the IT staff, thus reducing the overall cost of management.

“Traditional security approaches make it very hard for IT administrators to predict ressources utilization at an endpoint over a period of time… 800 new malware every hour, eventually is going to take a toll on the ressources on the endpoint. But with our new technology, these ressources used by the antivirus software still grow but by only 1 or 2 percent a year,” said Clarkson.

Because all the PC’s security (email, Web, file) is now done in the cloud, latency could be the major inhibitor of Trend Micro’s antivirus solution. “We think we solved this issue by providing a hybrid solution with both a private cloud, behind the enterprise’s firewall, and our SPN public cloud managed by us,” adds Clarkson.

To entice companies to move to its newest architecture, Trend Micro is giving away the standard version of OfficeScan 10 to all its current customers. An advanced version is also available for $30 per endpoint (PC, laptop, smartphone).

Here’s a video excerpt of our conversation with Clarkson about the OfficeScan 10 release and why a cloud offering makes sense:
