February 2021 -�Trend Micro
Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), a global leader in cybersecurity, combats
security alert overload and resource constraints with an extensible platform
that provides visibility and response from a single console. The new platform, Trend Micro Vision
One^TM, has extended detection and response (XDR)
at its core and raises the bar with new capabilities to help security teams to see more and respond
faster.

Organizations are struggling with siloed tools,
disjointed alerts and stealthy, sophisticated threats, whether they have a
Security Operations Center (SOCs) or are relying on stretched IT security teams
for SOC functions. Trend Micro has helped hundreds of organizations identify
and reduce cyber risk by correlating alerts across the entire IT environment,
with the industry-first XDR solution launched in 2019.� Now, with Vision One, Trend Micro is solving
more complex security challenges with enhanced XDR, new risk visibility, new
third-party integrations, and simplified response to threats across security
layers.

"Our team had
previously been simply overwhelmed with threat alerts they couldn't prioritize,
hitting productivity and exposing our organization to extra cyber risk," said
Aaron Cunningham, Vice President of IT, Glazer's Beer and Beverage. "We can
count on Trend Micro to provide more context and less noise so they can react
faster to the threats that matter. Their integration with our third-party SIEM
provider means we can also drive value from existing investments."

With Trend Micro Vision One, organizations can maximize
efficiency by making less sophisticated security resources operate at a more
expert level. The new platform allows them to faster dissect security
incidents, identify critical threat patterns and complex attacks and understand
their overall security posture and trends, so organizations can proactively
identify and assess potential security risks.

According to
Gartner, Innovation Insight for Extended
Detection and Response, March
2020, "Two of the biggest challenges for all security organizations are hiring
and retaining technically savvy security operations staff, and building a
security operations capability that can confidently configure and maintain a
defensive posture as well as provide a rapid detection and response capacity.
Mainstream organizations are often overwhelmed by the intersectionality of
these two problems."

The holistic threat defense platform is true to its name,
offering:

• Visibility
  and threat intelligence: Cross-layer detection models, along with security risk
  visibility supported by Trend Micro Research insights, enable enterprises to
  see complex attacks and particular points of security risk that siloed
  solutions miss. In preview, are new insights into SaaS application usage, their
  risk levels and trends over time.
• Purpose-built
  sensors: Native integrations with Trend Micro security stack across critical
  security layers.
• Fit
  with existing infrastructure: Out-of-the-box, API integrations with existing
  third-party solutions already in use to compliment workflows.
• Simplified
  management: Ability to adjust security policies and drive response actions
  across security layers from a single console instead of swivel chair management.

"Standing
upon three decades of innovation, Trend Micro was at the forefront of the
fast-growing XDR space. But as XDR solutions flood the market, we are going
further and offering more," said Trend Micro COO, Kevin Simzer. "Our Trend
Micro Vision One platform helps make good security teams great by easily
identifying critical needs and enabling quick actions. This threat defense
platform will continue to evolve in response to the changing threat landscape,
and the infrastructure of our customers."

In addition to the layered security from Trend Micro,
customers can easily connect this new platform into other security technologies
such as third-party endpoint protection platforms and SIEM and SOARs, including
new integrations with Fortinet,�
Microsoft Sentinel and Splunk just to name a few.
Early adopting customers are ready to act on the developing opportunity to
integrate beyond SIEM and SOAR, with solutions like firewalls, ticketing
solutions, identity and access management.
