CNA News, RTI News, China Times News & udn.com (2010/03/17) This year, two information security giants Trend Micro and Symantec show the same interest in cloud computing. Trend Micro announces that all of its products in 2010 will be over the cloud, and, with the cooperation with computer brands such as ASUS, its newly presented cloud anti-virus software will enter the test stage. Symantec, on the other side, focuses upon the potential market of the mobile information security, believing the popularization of smart phones will create gigantic demand for mobile internet security.

Facing the emerging cloud era, Trend Micro has been preparing the ground for standing upon the advantageous position over the cloud for years. The goal for its forthcoming five years is to make itself the leader of the market by taking the cue from the changing conditions. Trend Micro's subsidiary T Cloud Computing has disclosed the source code and offered the beta-version platform. Several telecommunication companies are joining in the testing. It is estimated that the platform will be open to the public in the second quarter.

Symantec says, because of the forthcoming of the cloud era and the popularization of mobile internet, the mobile information security will become an important issue.

However, from now on, Symantec will shift the focus from the end protection to the mobile platform protection.
