Trend Ready | Security That Speeds Cloud Adoption
If you still believe that your systems management consoles should be running on servers in your data center, you’re definitely from the pre-cloud era. Even if you believe your systems management and security consoles should be running on infrastructure as a service instances you control, you’re also out of date. The evidence is in, and [...]
Over the past weeks we have been reviewing the top 10 tips for securing instances running on Amazon Web Services. We walked through the critical controls as part of the AWS shared security model. As noted in these tips, host-based security capabilities such as intrusion detection and prevention, anti-malware, and integrity monitoring are critical for [...]
Amazon Web Services did it again. Its new service, OpsWorks, is an application management service with the ability to manage applications of any scale or complexity in the AWS cloud. This integrated system manages resource provisioning, configuration management, application deployment, software updates, and monitoring and access control. The service is another offering from the leader in [...]
In last week’s post, we gave a high level overview of vulnerability assessments. This type of assessment results in a prioritized list of vulnerabilities in your deployment. It’s an excellent first step in knowing the state of your deployment. The next step you should take is to conduct a penetration test. The Test A penetration [...]
As a Product Marketing Manager for Trend Micro™ Worry-Free™ Business Security Services, I hear a lot of objections about the product, and in particular, a lot of cloud-related fears. Some examples of things I hear from customers and partners are: “I wouldn’t be secure if my Internet connection went down.” “I don’t want to put [...]
Trend Micro customers talk about security concerns with cloud adoption, flexible security for dynamic architectures, and agentless protection with Deep Security
Trend Micro Deep Security Powering tomorrow's cloud-enabled enterprises with a dynamic data center of distributed physical and virtual servers operating in private and public clouds.
Gartner and Trend Micro illustrate the key criteria to consider when evaluating a data center security solution.
Virtualised datacentres, desktops, and cloud computing should be secured by the same strong protection technologies as physical machines. However, traditional agent-based solutions that are not architected for virtualisation can result in a number of significant operational security issues. Find out more about the first agentless security platform solution. Download PDF
This white paper reviews the challenges with endpoint security in virtualised environments - including the inherent risks of dynamic virtual machines and the resource impact of security software such as virusscanners in multiple guest virtual machines, on a single physical host. Download PDF
Virtualisation and cloud computing can help your organisation achieve significant ROI as well as savings in hardware costs, operational expenditures, and energy demands - while achieving improvements in service quality and business agility. Despite this potential, many organisations maintain their existing physical server security, unaware that this limits their ability to maximize their use of virtualisation and cloud technologies.

Compelling new research by IDG Research Services spotlights the most pressing challenges facing organisations globally around virtualisation and security in data centers and clouds environments. Download PDF
Virtualisation and cloud computing have changed the face of today’s data centre. Yet as organisations move from physical environments to a mix of physical, virtual, and cloud, many have addressed the prevailing threat landscape with yesterday’s mix of legacy security solutions. The results can actually threaten desired performance gains – for example, leaving unintentional security gaps. Download PDF
As organisations expand their virtualisation deployments to application and desktop virtualisation, they will find themselves on the road to cloud computing. ESG looks at the multi-phase process IT organisations will undergo and offers guidance on how each phase provides an opportunity to not only increase optimisation and efficiency, but enhance security as well.

Software patches have long been an integral aspect of maintenance and development for any product or system. Regular patches allow a system to undergo dynamic growth, evolving and developing to meet new needs, respond to new developments, or address emergent weaknesses. Find out more about cost savings and overall gains to security and stability that an enterprise can accrue through the implementation of virtual patching technology. Download PDF
There are two types of data: data someone wants to steal and everything else. Most security professionals today do not understand the motivations behind data theft; they put controls in place that protect the data that is most valuable to them, as opposed to data that is most valuable to criminals.

The purpose of IT security is to enable your business, not impede it, but the challenges and complexity you face for your IT security grow every day. Compliance requirements impose security standards for data and applications on servers. Download PDF
Trend Ready Program for Cloud Service Providers is an initiative designed to help enterprises overcome the complex data and threat security risks that inhibit them from adopting cloud computing. It provides a validated set of trusted security tools that compliments your internal IT controls, helps you overcome fear about cloud security, and enhances your ability to fully embrace cloud computing.

Many organizations are looking to the cloud for increasing computational capacity or lowering costs of ownership. While the security issues facing a traditional corporate network are well understood, the challenges of using the cloud are more complex. Download PDF
This white paper reviews enterprise challenges with security patch management including risks to various areas of IT—security, compliance, operations, and budgets. It discusses how traditional approaches to remediating vulnerable systems can create new problems and provides a new model that keeps pace with the ever-increasing number of attack vectors. Download PDF
Countless software vulnerabilities leave the door open to data-stealing malware and other attacks. And IT teams can’t keep up—it’s virtually impossible to download, test, and deploy patches for all critical vulnerabilities before they are exploited. At the same time, emergency patching causes unacceptable downtime, overhead, and costs and other operational challenges. Given these challenges, there has never been a more urgent need for a virtual patching solution that complements existing patch management processes by shielding known and unknown vulnerabilities.
