Cybersecurity provider Trend Micro Incorporated has been integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into its technologies for a decade, but it hasn’t had the power of generative AI, until now.

Today Trend Micro announced its new Vision One platform, bringing together a series of different cybersecurity capabilities including extended detection and response (XDR), attack surface risk management (ASRM) and zero trust. In many respects, the platform is an evolution of the Trend Micro one platform announced in 2022, with the big new addition being gen AI.

The Trend vision one companion is a gen AI-powered assistant for security operation center (SOC) analysts. The technology enables security teams to use natural language queries to answer questions, assist with threat hunting and accelerate remediation.

“We’ve really tried to think about how we can bring the power of gen AI to the security operation center,” Trend Micro COO Kevin Simzer told VentureBeat. “When you’re in an SOC, It tends to be a bit of a stressful job as they’re inundated with lots of telemetry from all different sources.”
