With
one of the largest domain-reputation databases in the world,
Trend Micro web reputation
technology tracks the credibility of web domains by assigning a
reputation score based on factors such as a website's age, historical
location changes and indications of suspicious activities discovered through
malware behavior analysis. Web reputation then continues to scan
sites and block users from accessing infected ones. web reputation
features help ensure that the pages that users access are safe and
free from web threats, such as malware, spyware, and phishing scams
that are designed to trick users into providing personal information.
To increase accuracy and reduce false positives,
Trend Micro web reputation
technology assigns reputation scores to specific pages or links
within sites instead of classifying or blocking entire sites, since
often, only portions of legitimate sites are hacked and reputations
can change dynamically over time.
