Trend Micro update server allows you to update ServerProtect components. The
update process comprises downloading and deploying the updates.
Update Components
The following are the ServerProtect components that you can update:
• Program component: Occasionally, Trend Micro releases new versions of the
Normal Server, Information Server, and the Management Console to incorporate
new features, user interface improvements, and remedies for issues found in
previous program versions.
• Virus pattern file: The virus pattern file is a collection of virus signatures
(Database). With so many new viruses being detected each month, this is
understandably the most often updated component.
• Scan engine: The scan engine is the software component that performs the actual
virus detection function.
