Today, we’re excited to announce that Trend Micro is partnering with Facebook. This new alliance means everyone who uses “the social network” will be better protected.
Facebook is going to leverage the Trend Micro™ Smart Protection Network™ to help filter out malicious links and stop malware and other cybercriminal attacks before they can reach members.
The Smart Protection Network uses a global network of threat intelligence sensors to continually update email, web, and file reputation databases in the cloud, identifying and blocking threats in real time.
As part of this partnership, we are happily providing complimentary copies of security software to Fearless Web fans (6-month subscriptions)*. They can choose from one of these two:
- Trend Micro™ Titanium™ Security Essentials for Windows
- Trend Micro™ Smart Surfing for Mac
Both these products use the Smart Protection Network, which is like a “global neighborhood watch” that gathers threat information from all over the world. It helps stop threats before they can infect your computer or mobile devices. And because this is cloud-based technology, our products won’t slow you or your computer down.
To get your 6-month complimentary copy of Titanium Security Essentials or Smart Surfing for Mac, visit the Facebook Security Software section or just become a fan of the Trend Micro Fearless Web Facebook community.
As a Fearless Web fan on Facebook, you’ll receive daily tips and timely news stories to help keep you safe online. And we’re a ready resource to answer your questions about Facebook and Internet security.
* = Offer available only in U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia , and New Zealand at this time. Check back for additional countries in the coming months.
I work for Trend Micro and opinions expressed here are my own.

The whine will be “It (everything) ought to be free forever!”, but I’m pleased with the 6 months. I just wish you had something integrated into the FB platform to catch and warn of or delete those idiotic “Share this and FB will donate a dollar” hoaxes and the worse ones that lead directly to malware. |

I am not a Facebook participant. I opened an account with Facebook several years ago, and after two days of being overwhelmed via the drivel offered, I quit- for good. |

I commend your initiative, however you need to urgently consider how to keep this from being used to silence political sites by their opposition. Opposing sites can use scams to force the appearance of the other sites participating in inappropriate activities. This may even be happening now, since I am sometimes now kept from visiting an apparent political site, but have no way of knowing the background. |

Love Trend, but you guys just nailed the newsroom of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the LDS Church/Mormons)in their official contrats. to newly elected Pres.Obama. You couldn’t have been more wrong in that one. It’s a GOOD SITE. |
