Trend Micro is a well-known Japanese IT security company.
Relatively widely used in companies and schools, it was one of the first to bet on the 100% Cloud in 2011, switching its software from PC-Cillin to Titanium products (recently modified).
For 2025 as in other years, Trend is keeping to this philosophy of betting everything on the Cloud, but strengthening its protections against unknown scripts and threats, while offering a product totally suited to novices.
Let's take a look at all this together.
Interface :
Like every year, Trend Micro arrives with the same interface.
Even though it's still clear, elegant and customizable (which I've done ^^ ), I would have appreciated a little change, as this interface has been around for quite a long time.
The suite remains fairly light on the system
Web protection: 10/10
All links are blocked by Trend
Fake crack : 1/1
Blocked
Malware Pack : Remaining 31 files out of 86.
The anti-malware engine is improving, but remains fairly average.
Trend, on the other hand, has greatly improved its proactive defenses!
In the test, Trend defends itself correctly against malware and scripts. It even managed to recognize a few malicious schemes (a RAT attempted to inject MSBuilder.exe, which Trend blocked).
But all is not perfect: traces are present, and malware remains active in memory.
Final scan :
Trend : 0
KVRT : 11 (Infection in memory)
NPE : 7
Final opinion:
Trend Micro remains a highly versatile and effective solution.
Its major strength is clearly its Cloud network, which is excellent, as is its ability to block malicious behavior.
Despite some residual infections and active malware in memory, Trend protected us well against the traps I set for it.
A little more effort on the antimalware scan is required!
Trend Micro remains a good solution to protect you, and is recommendable.
