Trend Micro designed PortalProtect to provide comprehensive security for
your SharePoint Server.
At the center of the PortalProtect security
solutions is the Trend Micro patented scan engine.
The scan engine integrates with the SharePoint Server Antivirus Manager (AVM). During
real-time
scanning, the Antivirus Manager calls the Trend Micro scan engine whenever content is checked-in, checked-out or published to a
SharePoint server. The Trend Micro scan engine
responds by scanning the content. During manual or scheduled scanning, the scan engine
accesses
and scans all content in the SharePoint Server SQL database.
SharePoint Server clients running applications such as Microsoft Office and Internet
Explorer
communicate with the SharePoint Server environment using Internet Information Services
(IIS). The
SharePoint administrator using the PortalProtect
Web Management console also communicates with SharePoint environment using IIS.
PortalProtect is capable of receiving component
updates through HTTP from the ActiveUpdate server or other Internet / intranet sources.
