Buffalo Technology partners with Trend Micro to supply security for storage

Storage and wireless networking solutions provider Buffalo Technology has partnered with Trend Micro to forestall a TeraStation from becoming host to malware.

The partnership will allow Buffalo's TeraStation III and TeraStation Pro users cash in on centralised virus/malware scanning, pattern updates, event reporting and configuration, preventing hackers from stealing sensitive data together with email addresses and passwords.

Pre-installed with Trend Micro's network attached storage (NAS) security, it truly is managed through an intuitive web-based console and gives users real time updates ensuring systems are safeguarded from the newest online threats, in keeping with Buffalo Technology.

Paul Hudson, sales director for Northern Europe at Buffalo Technology, said: “As security becomes more important for businesses, the demand for an anti-virus feature has also increased.

“Buffalo has recognised this demand from users and, as such, partnered with a trusted security company that could protect our business storage range. We're delighted to be partnering with Trend Micro and giving our business users the safety they want.”
