Offline threat protection

​Does TM Maximum Security purely rely on the cloud or does it offer offline protection with behaviour blocking and AI heuristic protection when not connected to the internet?​

Hello @muhammadnabeelmansoor!

Trend Micro Security has offline protection, however, the program will check for updates online every 3 days to make sure that offline protection is updated.

Important security updates require an online connection.

@tm_kree​ Thanks. Does this mean if a new exploit or ransomware is executed whilst offline the protection layers of TM will help block the new malware (whilst offline)?

@muhammadnabeelmansoor  Protection from  new viruses, exploits, or ransomware will require an internet connection for real-time updates to work.

If there is no connection to the internet, will the components within TM Maximum Security prevent the harm that may occur after execution of a unknown infected pdf or similar as a source of offline protection?

Thanks for always helping out @claudiubotezatu​ the 3-day update cycle is to secure offline protection.
