Deep Security

Trend Micro deep security is the solution offered by trend micro to secure the hybrid workloads either on-prem or over the modern cloud technologies which has proven track record preventing complex cyber attacks & threats across the world.

Evolution of Data centers & need of Deep Security

Modern data centers have evolved from on-premises infrastructure to virtualization, cloud, containers, and now serverless computing, improving scalability and efficiency. As workloads shift, Trend Micro Hybrid Cloud Security ensures comprehensive protection across all stages. Their solutions secure on-prem and virtualized environments with host-based security and intrusion prevention, while Cloud One provides compliance and threat detection for cloud workloads. Containers benefit from runtime security and image scanning, and serverless architectures are safeguarded with API protection and vulnerability shielding. This holistic approach enables secure digital transformation across modern IT infrastructures.

Current hybrid cloud security challenges

• IT Dynamics:

  • Evolving Infrastructure (shifting from on-prem to cloud)

  • Speed of App Changes (rapid development and deployment)

  • Threat Sophistication (advanced cyber threats)

• Organization Pain:

  • Threat Protection & Audit (ensuring security & compliance)

  • Performance (balancing security with efficiency)

  • Lack of Resources (shortage of security expertise & tools)

These challenges emphasize the need for robust security solutions in hybrid cloud environments.
