We have trusted Trend Micro InterScan Messaging Security to secure our MS Exchange Email Servers for 14 years now. We have two Exchange Servers in place and over 100 users connecting to those. The purpose of this installation is to secure our users/workstations from all kinds of threats in incoming email messages.
  • Protection from SPAM emails.
  • Protection from malicious attachments.
  • Definition pattern updates.
  • Protection again clickbait messages.
  • Reporting
  • Management interface.
Trend Micro InterScan Messaging Security is well suited for bigger companies with huge numbers of incoming and outgoing emails. It is really easy to configure, and once setup, there is not much to be done. So this requires minimal administration efforts. However, as the reporting is weak, if this is essential for a company, then it would be better to look into other alternatives.
  • Decent protection.
  • Cost is right (value for money) compared to other solutions.
  • Management effort required is minimal.

  • Has protected our company from threats in incoming emails.
  • Has drastically reduced the SPAM emails that land in our user mailboxes.
  • Has reduced the management / maintenance efforts required.
Trend Micro InterScan Messaging Security is much cheaper than Kasprsky Security for Email Server. Trend Micro InterScan Messaging Security is easier to install and the maintenance effort required is much less than this required by Kasprsky Security for Email Server. However Kasprsky Security for Email Server does have a better GUI and does indeed offer a better protection degree. However, taking into account that both were tested behind a firewall, most of the threats had already been eliminated there...

We wanted to have a solution in place which can help us to eradicate or for that matter minimizes our threats coming over the email. With this solution, we could enable our protection against targeted attacks, ransomware, malicious web links, spear phishing etc. It blocks malware, phishing attacks and spams coming over at the beginning only even before it enters in to the system. It also comes along with DLP feature which helps us to enhance our ecosystem against threats. Data is encrypted while it is transferred or at rest. The deep discovery analyzer dives deeper into its book if it comes across something which looks malicious but has no records so far.
  • Deep Discovery analyzer provides sandboxing and deep threat analyses
  • DLP capabilities are also good. It has a number of pre defined DLP templates
  • Works very well against targeted attacks
  • Lowers impact at the email gateway as it filters away the email in the cloud
  • UI/UX can be improved for a better interface to be delivered to the admin and team
  • You come across false positives also a number of times
  • Log details can become difficult sometimes to search and analyze
If your organization does not have any email security solution, its good to start off with Trend Micro InterScan solution. It helps against malicious emails and malicious traffic by filtering such content at the gateway level itself. With DLP customizable templates already in place place it reduces the TAT to deploy DLP content filtering rules. At the same time, it gives you real time protection against evolving or new threats. Management is easy as it provides single admin dashboard to control everything.
  • Sandboxing
  • DLP
  • Email Filtering against its library of malicious threats at the beginning only

Trend Micro InterScan Messaging Security is being used company-wide for incoming email. It address spam and re-written URLs.
  • Blocks spam.
  • Analyzes attachments.
  • Could use a better interface for the admin.
  • Could be a little more specific about what exactly it's done.
Trend Micro InterScan Messaging Security is well suited for email being hosted in-house. Might be unnecessary/unusable for hosted email.
It has helped us identify weekly traffic coming in as well as percentages being blocked.

  • We have a better understanding of what's coming in.
  • We have better data to go on.
Trend Micro stacks up well vs. other messaging security platforms. We used to use McAfee and Trend seems to give a lot more data. It's also a little more user friendly in terms of what is being recorded.
Easy to use, easy to pull data, easy to see what is going on in our specific environment.
