Product profiles provide Trend Micro Apex Central with information about how to manage a particular product. Managed products upload profiles to the Trend Micro Apex Central server the first time they register with the server.
Each product has a corresponding product profile, and in many cases, different versions of a product have their own, version-specific profile. Profiles contain the following information:
  • Category (for example, antivirus)
  • Product name
  • Product version
  • Menu version
  • Log format
  • Update component information – updates that the product supports (for example, virus pattern files)
  • Command information
By default, Trend Micro Apex Central servers contain all the product profiles for managed products that use Web Services Integration communication. Managed products that use the Trend Micro Management Communication Protocol (MCP) upload product profiles during initial registration with the Trend Micro Apex Central server.
