New capabilities supercharge proactive risk management, threat modeling, attack path prediction, and actionable insights

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 4 March 2025 - Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), has launched a breakthrough AI Agent designed to change the way enterprises approach cyber risk. Today's announcement introduces Trend Cybertron, the industry's first specialized cybersecurity large language model (LLM) designed to drive proactive security outcomes. Using the most precise local risk assessments and deepest global threat intelligence in the industry, the new AI engine predicts and prevents threats across an organization's entire attack surface in any environment. Trend Cybertron combines the reasoning capabilities of Agentic AI with 35 years of data, threat intel, and human expertise to build a vastly capable cybersecurity agent.

We're bringing together a massive quantity of the highest-quality data in the industry to supercharge our capabilities and make it easier than ever for customers to proactively manage their cyber risk. Our customers and partners are already seeing reduced costs and improved security posture." More than a standalone LLM, this new approach to AI for security will leverage all of the core technologies in Trend Vision One™—threat data, analytics, engines, and beyond—to provide a truly complete solution for organizations' entire cybersecurity workload. Organizations worldwide are grappling with increasingly complex security challenges. Understanding attack surfaces, managing siloed tech stacks, responding to threats, handling alert fatigue, and integrating AI are all leading to overwhelmed and fatigued security teams. Trend Cybertron connects real-time and historical data from around the globe to:

• Accelerate security outcomes by anticipating needs and predicting risk
• Reduce alert overload, increasing precision in prioritization and preventing fatigue
• Unleash greater value and more powerful insights from existing risk sensors

Stuart MacLellan, CTO at South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust: "This evolution of AI in the Trend platform is unique as it calculates our constantly changing risk profile and cross references millions of bits of data for custom threat intelligence. This has made it possible to be more proactive than reactive with our entire security strategy." Seamlessly integrated into the flagship Trend Vision One™ platform, Trend Cybertron is now available to customers worldwide. An industry-leading focus on proactive security enables IT teams to anticipate and predict risk and threat activity with exact precision across the entire attack surface. This makes it possible for teams to get ahead of breaches and mitigate risk before it has the chance to materialize. Frank Dickson, Group Vice President, Security & Trust at IDC: "Let's face it. Cybersecurity has been detection centric for some time. Prevention was simply uncool. Trend is looking to change the market narrative; there is no need to detect an attack if it never happens. Leveraging AI in combination with its cyber risk exposure management, Trend enables organizations to see threats from an attacker's point of view and thwart them before risk becomes reality, creating a massive ROI for overworked security teams. Trend promises to make proactive prevention cool again in 2025." Trend Cybertron will be trained on an unmatched foundation of intelligence and AI expertise, including:

• Trend's threat intelligence from over 250 million sensors that protect over 82 million assets at 500,000+ enterprises in 175+ countries—the broadest in the industry, blocking over 160 billion threats in 2023
• Machine learning that enables data classification, vulnerability discovery, and detection of deepfakes, phishing techniques, malware, lateral movement, user anomalies, and scams
• Decades of institutional knowledge from over 3,000 security experts, with over 700 patents in cybersecurity technology
• 20+ years of advanced vulnerability and zero-day research from the Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative™ that enables protection of customers an average of 70 days ahead of the industry

The result is a highly resilient, rapidly evolving system that can independently perform risk management tasks and make decisions to anticipate, understand, and mitigate billions of cyber threats worldwide every month. This empowers customers to make informed security decisions and manage their cybersecurity posture, data privacy, and compliance.
