Trend Micro Titanium Internet Security 2013 supports Windows 8

Trend Micro Incorporated has released Titanium Internet Security 2013, the latest edition of its consumer security family.

And the key addition to every Titanium package is Trend Micro’s Facebook Privacy Scanner, which at a click will check your Facebook page settings and alert you to any privacy problems: which apps can access your details, who can tag you, see your photos and more.

You’ll also now get Windows 8 compatibility across the board, while the new Trend Micro SafeGuard provides a secure browsing environment from the Windows 8 Start screen, and the Maximum and Internet Security suites now include additional protection for Windows 8 tablets.

The company says there have been other improvements throughout the packages, in particular to the antivirus and antiphishing engines.

And Titanium still has the core features from previous editions, which for the higher-end security suites includes parental controls, online backup space, secure storage for sensitive documents, data theft protection, a password manager, and more.

The lengthy feature list has never got in the way of Titanium’s key functionality, though, and at first glance the programs still seem to retain their simplicity. If other security tools are often bulkier and more than you’d like then Trend Micro 2013 still looks like it’s worthy of consideration.

And to encourage you to take the trial versions for a spin, Trend Micro are currently offering 25 percent off all Titanium 2013 packages: Titanium Antivirus Plus ($29.95), Titanium Internet Security($59.96), Titanium Internet Security for Mac ($49.95), Titanium Maximum Security ($67.46) and Titanium Premium Security ($74.96).
