Submitting Samples

If you identified suspicious files, you may submit them to us. Sample files for submission must be in ZIP format and should be password-protected. To submit a ZIP file, file compression software such as Winzip must be used. A trial version of Winzip is available here.

To compress a file, please follow the steps below:

  1. Right-click on the file and select Add to Zip.
  2. Enter a file name for the zip file.
  3. On the Options menu, choose Encrpyt. In the input box, type virus. This serves as the password for the zip file.

    • For Trend Micro Premium customers, please submit a virus support case by clicking here
    • For Trend Micro non-Premium customers, please contact your local support network by visiting your Trend Micro regional website.
