Trend Micro Smart Feedback provides continuous communication between
Trend Micro
products and its 24/7 threat research centers and
technologies. Each new threat identified through every single customer's routine reputation
check
automatically updates all
Trend Micro
threat databases, blocking any
subsequent customer encounters of a given threat.
By continuously processing the threat intelligence gathered through its extensive
global
network of customers and partners,
Trend Micro
delivers automatic,
real-time protection against the latest threats and provides "better together" security,
much
like an automated neighborhood watch that involves the community in the protection
of others.
Because the gathered threat information is based on the reputation of the communication
source,
not on the content of the specific communication, the privacy of a customer's personal
or
business information is always protected.
Samples of information sent to

You can terminate your participation to the program anytime from the web console.
