Netbook sales climbing, but security is still lacking; security leader Trend Micro provides Internet security on USB drives for easy netbook installation
CUPERTINO, -- Trend Micro, Incorporated , a global leader in Internet content security, announced that Trend Micro Internet Security is now being delivered on USB drives for netbooks in North America.
"Netbooks are cheaper and more portable than laptops so it's no surprise the market is becoming one of the fastest expanding PC market categories. With the netbook market expanding greatly, our partners and customers in North America have asked for a security solution tailored for netbooks," said Carol Carpenter, vice president of global marketing for Trend Micro consumer business unit. "Now users can install Trend Micro Internet Security on their netbooks and confidently surf online, knowing they are well protected."
Trend Micro Internet Security is delivered on a USB drive that is easy-to-use for netbooks and laptops. Trend Micro Internet Security is quick-to-install with or without autorun enabled.

Trend Micro Internet Security provides smart, up-to-date protection for netbooks, laptops and PCs against present and future threats without slowing down the system. The product is powered by the Trend Micro™ Smart Protection Network, a cloud-client security infrastructure that correlates Web and email threat data by using reputation technologies that compare threats against in-the-cloud threat databases. It keeps consumers' data and personal information more secure from online threats by offering significantly lighter memory load, faster installation, and more effective protection.
