Creating an Account

Create an account to sign up. You can try Email Reputation Services (refer to Request Trial Account) or purchase the full service. After signing up, you will receive an email with instructions on how to proceed.

If you sign up for a trial, you need to complete the request form appropriate to the service level that you wish to evaluate. If you purchase the full service, Trend Micro provides you with instructions on creating a customer account. Afterwards, Trend Micro sends you an Activation Code by email.

The Activation Code allows you access to only the level of service to which you are registered (Standard or Advanced).

Note:

The Activation Code for Email Reputation Services Advanced includes access to Email Reputation Services Standard, which is a subcomponent.

It may take up to one hour from when your Activation Code is issued before it is recognized by the Trend Micro Email Reputation Services systems.

If you don’t create an account, you can still query the reputation of an IP address (refer to Look Up IP Addresses) or nominate an IP address to the Global Approved List (refer to Global Approved List). However, you will not be able to configure your settings for better spam protection.
