As a Control Manager user and Trend Micro customer, you can receive alerts from TrendLabs(SM) about emerging virus outbreaks before they affect your system.
The Trend Micro TrendLabs Message Board provides version numbers and the times when TrendLabs releases update components (such as virus pattern files, scan engines, damage cleanup templates and Outbreak Prevention Policies) to identify the threats against which you should protect yourself with Control Manager.
