URL Database Parent topic

The URL database resides in the cloud with other Trend Micro™ Smart Protection Network™ servers. When a user attempts to access a URL, Deep Edge retrieves information about this URL from the database and stores it in the local cache. Having the URL database in the cloud and building the local cache with this database information reduces the overhead on Deep Edge and improves performance.
Information retrieved for a requested URL that passes through Deep Edge includes:
  • Web category used with URL Filtering policies to control access to web sites.
  • Web Reputation score used to block URL access based on a specified sensitivity level (See Configuring WRS Profiles .)
The URL database is updated with the latest categorization and reputation of web pages on a real-time basis to provide the most up-to-date information about any URL an end-user might try to visit.
If the reputation of a URL is believed to be misclassified or you want to know the reputation of a URL, use the link below to notify Trend Micro:
