Cloud computing at ITQS
Very good disk encryption, secure authentication, and centralized administration
At the time when this tool was launched on the market, it had new technologies integrated within. It was the beginning of the revolution of computing, and at the beginning, with the characteristics, everything was wonderful. However, if we compare it with today's technologies, we see that it is lacking quite a few things, including a nice interface, more functionalities, integrations with third parties, more security administration in policies, and more detailed reports.

Has helped protect mobile communications and prevent risky app usage while providing timely threat alerts
I am using the real-time scanning feature in Trend Micro Mobile Security. Whenever a message comes on my WhatsApp, Trend Micro Mobile Security can scan it, and whenever I press and click on that link, it immediately tells me not to click as it's harmful and malicious. It's a very good system; whenever I install any product or application on my mobile phone, the application scanner scans and tells me about the vulnerabilities in the application. Most of the applications I have removed on the recommendation of Trend Micro Mobile Security. I find App Reputation services beneficial. Trend Micro Mobile Security is good at responding immediately and making the user aware of potential threats, which is a significant improvement over my previous experience with Kaspersky mobile security over 10 years ago. As of now, Trend Micro Mobile Security is efficient and a very good solution. Mobile security has a positive impact, as one of my colleagues who didn't use Trend Micro Mobile Security had his WhatsApp hacked while traveling, with the hacker requesting money. The other colleagues and senior executives use Trend Micro Mobile Security on their mobile phones, and when we go to open Wi-Fi, Trend Micro Mobile Security notifies us that it's not safe.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"From the moment we started using Check Point Secure Web Gateway, we realized its great value and ability to take it not only on-premise but also into our cloud-based environment."
"Full disk encryption helps us ensure that data stored on a device is encrypted."
"One of the characteristics that give us the most value is that it offers the ability to perform HTTPS inspections."
"At the time when this tool was launched on the market, it had new technologies integrated within."
"If you have a Premium Support plan then the technical support is very good."
"Check Point GAiA is easy to use."
"Customer service has been excellent. Trend Micro has very good deals and support - also in the Middle East, which I know because I am located here in the Middle East."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Mobile Security is the security it provides."

Cons

"Overall, this is a good product but it does lack features that we need."
"The UI was one of the most difficult points to get used to. Due to the UI, even though it was used every day, the administration was complicated."
"We would maybe want (in the future) advanced security in the filtering of access to the metaverse by augmented reality cameras."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see application identity support."
"The installation was quite complex."
"Trend Micro tends to drain the battery running in the background, but apart from that, they need to improve their updates."
"When the agent upgrades itself, it loses some settings and they need to be re-enabled manually."
"The only disadvantage I see is that my mobile is very slow after installing this scanner."
"There have been some users who have been complaining about the interface being unfriendly and when the application software is installed on their phone making their mobile slow, a little bit laggy."
"They could improve the prices of Trend Micro Mobile Security products, which are quite expensive."
"This solution is weak and cannot detect the latest ransomware."
"There is always room for improvement in security."
"Contact Backup."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Each license costs about $10/year. It's fairly inexpensive because it's a new product. In Pakistan, no more than two or three companies can apply for mobile protection right now. I don't know if there are ancillary costs above the standard licensing fee."
"Very cheap in cost"
"We have a license that we renew yearly."
