Our agreements with these vendors also typically provide for co-development and licensing arrangements so that our and the vendors' products operate smoothly when used together. Trend Micro's products have evolved with the development of the anti-virus software market as a whole. To meet increased demand for network-based products as companies shifted from stand-alone desktop personal computers to client-server enterprise networks in the early 1990s, we introduced LANprotect, our first server application, in 1993. To address the increased risk of virus infection for enterprise networks resulting from widespread use of the internet, we introduced InterScan VirusWall in 1997 to provide real-time scanning at the internet gateway. In 1998 we introduced Trend Virus Control System to enable network-wide anti-virus software monitoring, updating and management from a central management console. Major Corporate and government end users of our anti-virus software and management tools include Chase Manhattan Bank, Merrill Lynch, Microsoft, Nomura, Pacific Bell, Yamaha Corporation, Toyota, the Japanese Ministry of Home Affairs, the U.S. Veterans Administration and Viacom.
