On April 29, 2009 Trend Micro announced a definitive agreement to acquire the business of Third Brigade, a privately-held security and compliance software company headquartered in Ottawa, Canada that owns the OSSEC project. The acquisition is subject to customary approvals and is expected to close in the 2nd quarter of 2009.
