Trend Vision One's centralized visibility and management are crucial for our managed security services because they reduce the overhead required for monitoring. As an XDR solution, it performs many of the tasks an analyst would typically handle, streamlining our workflow and allowing us to focus on in-depth analysis when needed. This reduction in workload is a significant benefit, enabling us to efficiently provide comprehensive security services to our clients.
The executive dashboard is a valuable tool for analyzing the threat level of specific assets, particularly for generating end-of-month reports that detail threat and alert volumes, and highlight high-security risks. This comprehensive analysis helps customers understand their security posture and take appropriate action to strengthen their defenses. However, it's important to note that the dashboard's usefulness may vary depending on the individual customer's needs and priorities.
The risk index is a useful tool that provides benefits, but its value depends on the specific needs of the customer. Some customers may utilize the risk index to identify assets with high-security risks, allowing them to address vulnerabilities and implement necessary patching. However, other customers may rely on alternative sources for vulnerability visibility and, therefore, may not prioritize the risk index. While not always a primary focus, the risk index remains a valuable resource.
Trend Vision One provides immediate benefits upon deployment. Its built-in XDR, which includes EDR functionality and integrates with existing security models like Apex One, Cloud One, or Workload Security, allows for seamless provisioning of endpoints and workloads. Rigorous testing confirms that Vision One effectively identifies and correlates alerts, including those missed by other EDR solutions. This enhanced detection capability is evident during post-deployment testing, as Vision One Workbench alerts are generated immediately.
We use Trend Vision One to consolidate security across hybrid environments.
We use attack surface risk management and often customize it in our reports to meet client needs. This service helps identify vulnerabilities and blind spots in their environments. For instance, we assisted a customer experiencing recurring attacks due to unknown vulnerabilities. Our attack surface management analysis provided the data to identify and patch these critical vulnerabilities, ultimately enhancing their security posture.
Vision One XDR significantly reduces threat detection and response time by automating the analysis typically done by a level two or three analyst. It provides a comprehensive view of the environment, incorporating behavioral analysis and intelligence sources to quickly identify unusual activity. This eliminates the need for manual investigation of logs and data, allowing analysts to focus on addressing actual threats. The XDR's automated workbench triggers alerts with a high degree of accuracy, minimizing false positives and further streamlining the security process.
We use security playbooks for certain low-level security alerts because many of these alerts, despite the large volume of data they represent, do not require significant time or attention. Playbooks are particularly useful in these situations as they automate the process of blocking the source or IP address associated with the alert.
