MetroTV's news and information programming is broadcast around the clock via satellite to several million viewers across the Indonesian archipelago. MetroTV's reliance on information technology led to a growing concern for security as the worldwide incidents of virus and worm infestation rose steadily in recent years. That concern led them to invest in Trend Micro's award-winning enterprise antivirus solution.

"Providing breaking news and up-to-the-minute reports to the public is a service that we cannot afford to let break down. Since our computer network directly supports our broadcasting, we cannot afford to be complacent about the ever-present threat of destructive worms and viruses. We need the best protection available. That is why we chose Trend Micro. Trend Micro provides the most comprehensive range of antivirus solutions, has a good track record, and round-the-clock technical support," said Mr. Kartika Yudhana, head of MetroTV's IT department.

"MetroTV's selection of Trend Micro NeaTSuite demonstrates their faith in our products to protect their technology assets," said Isaac Lim, Trend Micro's country manager for Indonesia and Singapore. Like all of our customers around the world, MetroTV can be assured that we strive for the highest levels of quality and service.

"MetroTV came to us during the Nimda virus outbreak, and the challenge was to implement an AV solution that could hold up to similar 'mixed-threat' virus outbreaks in the future. Since a number of major enterprise network sites in Indonesia had already standardized on Trend Micro antivirus, we were very confident in taking up this challenge. Trend Micro's award-winning NeaTSuite solution is a proven multi-tier AV defense system used widely by large corporations throughout the world."

"The antivirus defense for the Metro TV network was implemented by our most experienced lead engineer, Denni Marganda," said Ray Sugiarto, business director of Amafindo, Trend Micro's main authorized distributor in Indonesia. "The overall installation was completed in two stages, working late into the evenings to ensure that the AV defense was up and ready to stop the Nimda virus in the quickest time possible."
