The Vision One platform strengthens the cyber resilience of companies through early detection and rapid response. This is now additionally ensured by the new next-generation XDR and AI capabilities. Trend Micro thus significantly strengthens its cyber security platform. 

Trend Micro, one of the world's leading providers of cybersecurity solutions, introduces the new generation of its cybersecurity platform, setting a new standard for strengthening enterprise defense capabilities and threat prevention. The new Trend Vision One platform includes robust attack surface risk management, pervasive protection in hybrid environments, and next-generation XDR, reinforced with powerful generative AI technology.

XDR—Extended Detection and Response

The platform's advanced Extended Detection and Response (XDR) capabilities include a broad set of native security sensors for comprehensive, cross-domain protection. For this purpose, data from internal and third-party sources are consolidated, and AI and machine learning analytics and correlated recognition models are used.

Organizations gain deep insight into events for proactive defense, early detection and rapid incident response. The following functions make this possible:

Cross-tier support for hybrid environments

Trend Vision One protects all layers of an organization's IT infrastructure, including endpoints, servers, email, cloud services, networks, 5G and OT (operational technology). Trend's cloud security, network security, email and endpoint security capabilities are natively integrated into the platform. The platform also supports hybrid environments, protecting enterprise assets across all environments—cloud, hybrid, and on-premises—without compromising security or the ability to expand to XDR.

Integration with third-party ecosystems

Trend Vision One has tripled its integration ecosystem across third-party and partner networks in the last 12 months. The integration efforts, driven by the security community, enable companies to strengthen their cybersecurity with consolidated visibility and analytics as well as streamlined workflow automation and orchestration.

Global threat intelligence

The platform is based on Trend Micro's global threat intelligence. With 16 research centers worldwide, hundreds of threat researchers and the Zero Day Initiative - the world's largest bug bounty program - global and local intelligence flows into the platform and helps customers stay one step ahead of attackers. Trend Micro leverages real-time threat intelligence, threat actor profiling, and deep attack campaign insights to gain deep insight into security breaches and vulnerabilities. Attempts to attack can thus be quickly understood and thwarted.

Managed Services from Experts

Along with the platform, Trend Micro offers a comprehensive Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service. This simplifies and supports the work of internal security teams by providing advanced threat detection, proactive threat hunting, rapid incident response, expert advice and continuous 24/7 monitoring and support.

By consolidating data from internal and third-party sources and using AI and ML analytics and correlated detection models, the platform helps organizations fight the full spectrum of cybercrime.

Platform optimized by generative AI

Trend Micro integrates generative AI capabilities into the Trend Vision One platform with the Trend Vision One Companion, an AI-powered cybersecurity assistant. Companion AI simplifies security operations, increases productivity and efficiency, and accelerates threat detection, response, and cyber risk management for analysts of all skill levels.

  • Companion represents the first phase of a multi-quarter rollout of AI and Large Language Model (LLM) capabilities within Trend Vision One and provides the following benefits:
  • Optimized usability and efficiency: Companion speeds up the onboarding of new analysts and enables experienced analysts to quickly understand complex scenarios and make informed decisions.
  • Improved Search with Speed, Confidence, and Accuracy: By converting simple language search queries into formal search syntax, Companion can build and execute queries quickly.
  • Accelerated workflows and reduced friction: Companion provides explanations of cross-layer event alerts, attacker scripts and commands in simple language.
  • Amplified impact through platform performance: With multi-layer native sensors, leading threat intelligence and deep integration capabilities, Companion is used throughout the enterprise environment.

Trend Micro's generative AI and LLM capabilities put security and compliance first. Strict measures ensure transparency on how each model handles company data. Additionally, additional controls and isolation mechanisms are implemented to prevent intermixing of Trend's LLM with instances and training data from other providers.

Proactive attack surface risk management (ASRM)

With Trend Vision One, organizations can build resilient cyber programs and proactively manage risk by thwarting potential events and security breaches with modern attack surface risk management. With continuous detection of attack surfaces and real-time risk assessment, organizations can quickly identify critical risks, including vulnerabilities and exposures, and prioritize remediation based on the likelihood and impact of an attack.

Core components of Attack Surface Risk Management

Cyber ​​Asset Attack Surface Management (CAASM): Trend Vision One ASRM maximizes the value of existing investments and security infrastructure by leveraging data sources that already exist in the environment. This gives a deeper insight into a company's cyber asset landscape. This enables proactive monitoring, risk assessment, and vulnerability management so that critical assets can be prioritized and protected.

External Attack Surface Management (EASM): Risk management cannot be effective in silos. Trend Vision One EASM is therefore integrated into the other ASRM solution. This gives security leaders a comprehensive, outside view of their digital assets, enabling them to identify potential threats and proactively mitigate risks originating from outside the network.

Cyber ​​Risk Quantification (CRQ): With internal and transparent reports for quantifying cyber risks, those responsible for security can reliably communicate cyber risks, the security situation and resilience planning to the board of directors, senior management and compliance officers. The context-based, real-time risk data includes detailed attack data, insight into vulnerabilities and exposures, and the status of security configuration and controls. This allows the organization's lineup to be quantified and compared, situational awareness to be improved, and critical actions to be prioritized.
