Trend Micro Browser Guard is an easy to use browser plug-in, which prevents known and unknown web threats. Zero-day attacks such as Aurora and Hydraq can be proactively blocked by Browser Guard, which detects and prevents behavior associated with these types of threats.

Cybercriminals often use malicious JavaScript inserted into web pages, where attacks can take place silently, without any visible effect. Browser Guard also protects you from such attacks by analyzing and subsequently blocking malicious JavaScript. For the most advanced and efficient detection, Browser Guard communicates with the Trend Micro Smart Protection Network, bringing you the latest protection when you surf the web.
