As part of the Cybersecurity Insiders Product Review series, we are today reviewing Trend Cloud One, a comprehensive and powerful cloud security platform for developers, security teams, and businesses. Trend Micro Cloud One’s integrated platform approach considers cloud projects and objectives holistically, meeting the needs of cloud and security teams alike with cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) capabilities that provide connected protection throughout an organization’s entire cloud environment.
Plus, Cloud One delivers thoughtful application security from commit to runtime across all major cloud providers, integrating with the DevOps tools your organization already uses.
THE MOVE TO PLATFORM SOLUTIONS
In the past, organizations have been looking for best-of-breed point solutions to meet their specific cloud security needs in different areas. This approach has created some serious drawbacks, including insufficient protection of cloud-native apps that can be exploited by bad actors and overwhelmed security teams that receive alerts from multiple tools and dashboards – to name a couple.
In response to the challenges and shortcomings of this best-of-breed patchwork approach, organizations are increasingly prioritizing all-in-one solutions such as Trend Cloud One. These types of solutions offer an integrated platform approach to cloud security that allows security teams to save time and gain visibility, leading to operational efficiencies, tool consolidation, and streamlined compliance.
TREND CLOUD ONE PROVIDES COMPREHENSIVE CLOUD SECURITY
Trend Cloud One is built with flexibility in mind, recognizing that every digital transformation journey is different, and it delivers connected protection at every stage of an application’s lifecycle. So, whether your organization needs to integrate security into a mature DevOps toolchain, get quick visibility of your production environment without sacrificing performance and reliability, or deploy runtime protection on your critical production workloads, Trend Cloud One meets the security needs for organizations of all
different cloud maturities, deployment models, and tool/platform choices.
Trend Cloud One provides robust, connected protection against threats in hybrid cloud environments, including source code repositories, virtual machines, containers, serverless functions, networks, APIs, endpoints, and file storage. The platform delivers security controls at every stage of the application’s lifecycle, safeguarding business-critical systems from malware, misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and more.
As a result, Trend Cloud One helps organizations to secure their digital transformation, including cloud migration projects and cloud-native application development.
TREND CLOUD ONE SUPPORTS ORGANIZATIONS’ EVOLVING CLOUD PRIORITIES

This provides flexibility and simplicity in securing cloud environments throughout the migration and expansion process. Customers gain increased visibility and consistent security throughout their hybrid cloud environments, with the most security controls and integrations within their existing toolsets.
2 – Cloud-Native Applications: With modern development practices and technologies like CI/CD, containers, and serverless, customers demand cloud-native application security with connected protection throughout their application’s lifecycle. Customers also want the assurance that their cloud services meet security best practices. Incorporating these practices empowers developers to address application risk across development toolchains, CI/CD pipelines, and production environments.
3 – Cloud Operational Excellence: With Trend Cloud One, organizations can automatically evaluate how well cloud services align to cloud configuration best practices and industry compliance standards. This way, customers can embrace a DevOps culture by empowering teams to build better architecture and applications in the cloud while having the necessary guardrails to grow and scale business safely and securely.
