BUFFALO 5-Year Trend Micro NAS Security Subscription (OP-TSVC-5Y)

Protecting valuable data stored on network-attached storage has never been more important. The BUFFALO 5-Year Trend Micro NAS Security Subscription (OP-TSVC-5Y) delivers enterprise-grade cybersecurity crafted specifically for Buffalo NAS devices. This long-term license pairs Buffalo hardware with Trend Micro’s cloud-powered threat intelligence to deliver robust protection against malware, ransomware, and evolving online threats while keeping your NAS running smoothly. Ideal for homes, small offices, and photographers or creators who rely on reliable storage, this five-year subscription provides comprehensive security without the complexity of monthly renewals. It ensures your files—photos, videos, documents, backups, and shared folders—stay protected across all volumes and shares, even as you expand your NAS with new drives and services.

• Real-time protection with cloud-powered updates: This subscription brings continuous, real-time antivirus and anti-malware defense to your Buffalo NAS. It leverages Trend Micro’s cloud-based threat intelligence to identify and block new and emerging threats, stopping malware before it can compromise files or backups. With lightweight agents designed for NAS hardware, protection runs in the background with minimal impact on system performance, so you can access, edit, and back up your data without noticeable slowdowns.
• Ransomware defense and data integrity: Ransomware remains one of the greatest risks to network storage. The BUFFALO 5-Year Trend Micro NAS Security Subscription includes advanced ransomware protection that detects suspicious file encryption activity and blocks unauthorized access to shares and backups. By monitoring file operations, encryption patterns, and unusual user behavior, it helps preserve data integrity and reduces the likelihood of irreversible data loss, giving you greater confidence in your business continuity plan.
• Network protection and web safety for NAS-connected devices: In addition to file-scanning, Trend Micro NAS Security provides network threat defense and web safety features that help block access to known malicious sites and reduce exposure to compromised endpoints on the same network. This protection works across connected devices—desktops, laptops, and mobile devices—that access data on the Buffalo NAS, helping to create a safer environment for your entire home or business network.
• Centralized management, visibility, and reporting: Manage security from a single, intuitive console integrated into the Buffalo NAS interface. The subscription delivers clear dashboards, real-time alerts, and actionable reports that help you understand threats, scan results, and protection status across all protected shares. This centralized view simplifies administration for busy individuals and teams, reducing the time you spend on security while increasing overall resilience.
• Cost-effective, long-term licensing with trusted support: A five-year license provides predictable budgeting and long-term protection without the recurring monthly charges of some security solutions. The subscription includes access to Trend Micro security updates and Buffalo support channels, ensuring you can get help with installation, activation, and ongoing maintenance throughout the term.
