MS has teamed up with NAI and TrendMicro to provide up to the minute virus information on their site. This is an interesting move because it leaves out the other big player in the AV triumverate, Symantec. Makes a lot of sense for MSFT to partner with AV companies, gives them the AV information they need while helping to boost awareness of the other companies. I do wonder how nicely Trend and NAI will play together in this alliance in the long run though. And how, or if, this will affect SYMC AV sales.
