Trend Micro, a provider of network antivirus and Internet content security appliances, software and services, has appointed Comstor, a subsidiary of the multinational Westcon Group, as one of its distributors for network appliance solutions. Through its Comstor division, Westcon Group offers benefits to its networking and communications equipment vendors and its reseller, systems integrator and service provider customers.

Commenting on this partnership, Goh Chee Hoh, Managing Director, Trend Micro Asia South said, "Comstor is the partner of choice as we believe in the breadth and quality of their distribution channel, their longstanding customer relationships, and their emphasis on service and training solutions. Further, Comstor's track record in bringing cutting edge technologies to market immediately enhances our already established presence in Singapore."

"We are excited to be part of Trend Micro's dynamic market strategy and plans for Singapore. We believe Trend Micro can stand to gain from our extensive distribution network in Singapore, and achieve its goals within a shorter period of time", said Albert Tan, Managing Director, Comstor Pte Ltd

This partnership with Trend Micro significantly scales Comstor's security product and services offering, addressing resellers' continued demand for security solutions that offer advantageous margins and services potential. Both Trend Micro and Comstor will focus outreach efforts on Small and Medium Businesses (SMBs) and enterprises businesses through the ASPs, integrators and resellers that serve these markets, the company said.
