 If several, or all, VMs start a full anti-malware scan at the same time, the underlying
 shared hardware will experience extreme load (memory, CPU, I/O), causing a
 slowdown of all virtual systems on the server.
 Large pattern file updates require significant memory and can impact, network and
 storage I/O resources.

           Trend Micro OfficeScan
           Protects virtual & physical endpoints
           • VDI Intelligence with VDI plug-in
           • Serializes updates and scans per VDI-host
           • Leverages base-images to further shorten scan times
           • Smart Scan limit Endpoints pattern updates since it is
             mostly in the cloud

OfficeScan 10.5 has VDI-Intelligence


• Detects whether endpoints are physical or virtual
  – With VMware View
• Serializes updates and scans per VDI-host
  – Controls the number of concurrent scans and updates per VDI host
  – Maintains availability and performance of the VDI host
  – Faster than concurrent approach
• Leverages Base-Images to further shorten scan times
  – Pre-scans and white-lists VDI base-images
  – Prevents duplicate scanning of unchanged files on a VDI host
  – Further reduces impact on the VDI host

CPU - Analysis
 • Only 10.5 can support 20+ desktop images with mixed user profile.
 • With no AV, average CPU utilization while 4 heavy and 16 light user
   script is running is 33%
 • With 10.5 with ALL 4 heavy and 16 light user machines scanning,
   CPU utilization is 41%. Very Impressive.
 • With powerful machines typically used in VDI environment CPU’s
   typically are not the breaking point.
 • With 20 desktop images, 10.5 adds marginal load to CPU where as
   other solutions can not even get to support baseline number of
   desktop images
 • With 10 desktop images, 10.5 adds only 11% CPU overhead
   compared to baseline (no AV and no scanning) versus Symantec
   which adds 29% CPU overhead , 10.1 which adds 50% CPU
   overhead and McAfee which is the worst which adds 83% CPU
   overhead

    • 10.5 Serializes updates and scans per VDI-host
    • Pre-scans and white-lists VDI base-images
    • Prevents duplicate scanning of unchanged files on a VDI host

A solution that scale over time. Don’t need to buy a bigger physical
appliance. Just add more resources. Don’t need to buy an extra box
for pre-production environment, just fire a new VM or install on any
box that can run CentOS or Red Hat.

    Key Issue: Resource Contention High impact : Employee’s arrival or schedule scans 9:00am Scan Typical AV Console If several, or all, VMs start a full anti-malware scan at the same time, the underlying shared hardware will experience extreme load (memory, CPU, I/O), causing a slowdown of all virtual systems on the server. Large pattern file updates require significant memory and can impact, network and storage I/O resources. Classification 10/4/2010 Copyright 2009 Trend Micro Inc. 6 6

    VDI Security option#1: OfficeScan (First AV optimized for VDI) Trend Micro OfficeScan Protects virtual & physical endpoints • VDI Intelligence with VDI plug-in • Serializes updates and scans per VDI-host • Leverages base-images to further shorten scan times • Smart Scan limit Endpoints pattern updates since it is mostly in the cloud 10/4/2010 Copyright 2009 Trend Micro Inc. 7 7

    OfficeScan 10.5 hasVDI-Intelligence • Detects whether endpoints are physical or virtual – With VMware View • Serializes updates and scans per VDI-host – Controls the number of concurrent scans and updates per VDI host – Maintains availability and performance of the VDI host – Faster than concurrent approach • Leverages Base-Images to further shorten scan times – Pre-scans and white-lists VDI base-images – Prevents duplicate scanning of unchanged files on a VDI host – Further reduces impact on the VDI host Copyright 2009 Trend Micro Inc. 8

    CPU - Analysis • Only 10.5 can support 20+ desktop images with mixed user profile. • With no AV, average CPU utilization while 4 heavy and 16 light user script is running is 33% • With 10.5 with ALL 4 heavy and 16 light user machines scanning, CPU utilization is 41%. Very Impressive. • With powerful machines typically used in VDI environment CPU’s typically are not the breaking point. • With 20 desktop images, 10.5 adds marginal load to CPU where as other solutions can not even get to support baseline number of desktop images • With 10 desktop images, 10.5 adds only 11% CPU overhead compared to baseline (no AV and no scanning) versus Symantec which adds 29% CPU overhead , 10.1 which adds 50% CPU overhead and McAfee which is the worst which adds 83% CPU overhead Classification 10/4/2010 Copyright 2009 Trend Micro Inc. 11 11

    IOPS – Howmany Systems? • A VDI environment sized for 20 desktop images with 4 heavy and 16 light users. • Keep IOPS between 6-8 and see how many desktop images can be supported with each AV deployment (Apples to Apples comparison) • All about return of investment • If you deploy McAfee, you can deploy ONLY 2 desktop images in an environment which supports 20 images without AV • If you deploy Symantec, you can deploy ONLY 4 desktop images in an environment which supports 20 images without AV • If you deploy Trend 10.5, you can deploy ALL 20 desktop images Customers no longer have to choose between Security and Return On Investment Classification 10/4/2010 Copyright 2009 Trend Micro Inc. 14 14
