OfficeScan includes a framework called Plug-In Manager that integrates new solutions into the existing OfficeScan environment.
These solutions are licensed separately and activated through Plug-In Manager. For example, the Virtual Desktop Support is managed from Plug-In Manager, whereas Data Loss Prevention is managed from the OfficeScan web console. The other type of plug-in program is Security for Mac, which is not part of the OfficeScan program, the program has its own licenses and is managed mainly from its own management consoles, which are accessible from within the OfficeScan Plug-in Manager console.
In the Plug-In Manager console, use the console to download, install, and manage the program. Plug-In Manager downloads the installation package for a plug-in program from the Trend Micro ActiveUpdate server or from a custom update source. Configure settings and perform program-related tasks from the plug-in program’s management console, tasks include activating the program and deploying its client-side agent to endpoints.
