Cisco to bundle Trend antivirus

Cisco is to bundle Trend Micro's antivirus software with its range of networking equipment. From the third quarter of this year, Trend's antivirus signatures will be added to all products that support Cisco's IOS software version 4.1, including IOS software-based routers, switches and network security appliances. The technology will be integrated into other Cisco products in 2005. Roger Levenhagen, UK managing director of Trend Micro commented: "This could signify an industry shift.
