Introducing Trend Micro Control
Manager™
Trend Micro Control Manager™ is a central management console that manages
Trend Micro products and services, third-party antivirus and content security
products at the gateway, mail server, file server, and corporate desktop levels. The
Control Manager Web-based management console provides a single monitoring point
for antivirus and content security products and services throughout the network.
Control Manager allows system administrators to monitor and report on activities
such as infections, security violations, or virus entry points. System administrators
can download and deploy update components throughout the network, helping ensure
that protection is consistent and up-to-date. Control Manager allows both manual and
pre-scheduled updates. Control Manager allows the configuration and administration
