InterScan VirusWall First Complete Virus Protection Approved For Sun
Internet Mail Server Software

Trend Micro's award winning virus protection now available for Sun's
industry leading messaging platform

Cupertino, Calif.- 15 December 1998 - Trend Micro Inc., the leader in
centrally managed virus protection, has announced that its Internet
gateway virus scanning solution, InterScan(r) VirusWall(r) 2.6 for
Sun(tm) Solaris(tm), has been tested and approved by Sun (NASDAQ:
SUNW) for use with Sun(tm) Internet Mail Server(tm) software. With
this approval, InterScan VirusWall becomes the industry's first
interoperable virus scanning solution for Sun's high-powered
messaging platform.

After rigorous testing, Trend Micro's high performance scanning
solution demonstrated its complete interoperability with Sun Internet
Mail Server software. InterScan VirusWall provides high performance
real-time scanning of both in-bound and outbound SMTP (e-mail)
traffic to keep viruses and other known malicious code from getting
into or out of the network. Sun and Trend Micro have prepared
instructions detailing how to set up and configure InterScan
VirusWall to run with Sun's mail software.

"With Sun Internet Mail Server software the clear leader in Internet
messaging, Trend Micro's solution for virus protection is a natural
complement to the Sun platform," said Stuart Wells, vice president of
Sun's Network Software Products. "We are excited to see ISVs, like
Trend Micro, aggressively developing applications for the Sun
platform and enhancing the capabilities of Sun software."

"Most viruses today are infiltrating organisations as attachments to
e-mail," said Laura Ventura, market analyst with The Radicati Group,
Inc. a leading research firm specialising in messaging. "High
performing virus protection, like Trend Micro's InterScan VirusWall,
ensures that Sun's Internet Mail Server users are protected from
Internet-borne viruses without slowing mail delivery."

''We're delighted to offer our industry-leading Internet gateway
virus scanning solution to customers using the high-performance Sun
messaging platform," said Eva Chen, chief technology officer for
Trend Micro. "With Trend's reputation for high performance,
best-of-breed malicious code protection technology, customers can be
assured that they're getting a solution that will operate seamlessly
with Sun's Internet Mail Server and provide the best protection
available today on the market."
