Advanced detection techniques
Apex One leverages a blend of cross-generational threat techniques to provide the broadest protection against all types of threats, giving you:
Pre-execution and runtime machine learning
More accurate detection of advanced malware, such as fileless, living off the land, and ransomware threats
Noise-cancelling techniques – like census and safelisting – throughout every layer of detection to dramatically reduce false positives
Effective protection against scripts, injection, ransomware, memory, and browser attacks through innovative behavior analysis
Ultimate protection against vulnerabilities
More than just a scan, Apex One Vulnerability Protection uses a host-based intrusion prevention system (HIPS) to virtually patch known and unknown vulnerabilities before a patch is available or deployable:
Eliminating risk exposure by shielding vulnerabilities through innovative virtual patching capabilities and world-class research
Extending protection to critical platforms and physical or virtual devices
Reducing recovery and emergency patching downtime
Identifying vulnerabilities based on CVE, MS-ID, and severity
Detecting more vulnerabilities than any other vendor by leveraging our industry-leading vulnerability research
Integrated detection and response
Leverage advanced detection techniques that allow you to discover and respond to threats before they compromise data. With Trend Micro Vision One™, you gain full-featured XDR capabilities to deepen detection and response capabilities and extend them across multiple security layers for broad visibility and response to threats impacting the entire organization.
Experience XDR with Trend Micro Vision One with automatic free access for 10% of licensed users*. Secure those most at risk, and improve detection and response for your organization.
*Free XDR licenses do not include integrated response actions
Hunt for indicators of attack (IoA) and define the attacker’s intent in real time
Sweep user timelines (telemetry) for indicators of compromise (IoCs) to determine the impact of targeted attacks
Employ an interactive root cause analysis diagram to drill down on a detection, and respond by isolating or terminating processes and updating protection points
Have the option to go beyond a single vector approach by correlating events across email, endpoints, servers, cloud workloads, and networks
Effective security for your sensitive data Protect your sensitive data, on or off network, for maximum visibility and control. Endpoint encryption,* integrated DLP, and device control:
- Cover the broadest range of devices, applications, and file types
- Assist with most regulatory compliance, including GDPR
- Protect data with full-disk, folder, file, and removable media encryption
- Set granular policies for device control and data management
- Manage Microsoft® BitLocker®, and Apple® FileVault® encryption keys
*Endpoint encryption is available as a separate agent.
Enhanced application control against malicious software Prevent unknown and unwanted applications from executing on your corporate endpoints. Trend Micro Apex One™ Application Control allows you to:
- Block malicious software from running using customizable lockdown, safelisting, and denylisting policies
- Create dynamic policies by leveraging Trend Micro’s application categorization and reputation intelligence to reduce management overhead
- Correlate data from millions of application events to identify threats and maintain an up-to-date database of validated applications
Centralized visibility and control
Enable consistent security management, visibility, and reporting across multiple layers of interconnected security through a centralized console.
Extend control and visibility across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid models
Improve protection, reduce complexity, and eliminate redundancy
