Implementation of XGen in solutions for protection of e-mail

The Trend Micro Incorporated company announced on October 16, 2017 implementation of XGen Security technologies in the set of solutions for protection of e-mail which are provided on the SaaS model.

Thanks to XGen Security of the solution Trend Micro for e-mail had an opportunity to protect users, using the different technicians developed especially for reflection of the various attacks. In particular, Trend Micro applies machine learning technologies to protection against malware in e-mail, it allows to block unknown malware to their analysis in "sandbox". The technology directed against WEIGHT attacks integrates the rules created by experts with mechanisms of machine learning to reveal phishing letters. While the XGen technology is designed to reveal and reflect practically all types of cyberthreats in e-mail, other mechanisms, such as detection of exploits, the analysis of macroes, simulation in "sandboxes" and substitution of doubtful links (URL-time-to-click), specialize in protection against separate threats, such as phishing, malicious URLs and programs racketeers, noted in Trend Micro.

In solution SaaS of Trend Micro for protection of corporate mail — Cloud App Security and Hosted Email Security — are already added XGen technology. Smart Protection for Office 365 is a combination of these two solutions SaaS which provides security blanket of Office 365, having potential of both solutions — lock and cloud. It is created for protection on all phases of lifecycle of threat and helps clients to detect, prevent and react to the cyber attacks connected with e-mail told in the company.

In addition to protection against external threats, such as programs racketeers, fraud and the purposeful attacks, Smart Protection for Office 365 detects internal phishing or the BEC attacks. For reaction and elimination of effects from the attacks, Trend Micro allows users to perform search in mail regarding existence of indicators of a compromise the malware. Smart Protection for Office 365 also includes advanced technologies of protection for Microsoft OneDrive, SharePoint and other cloud services for file sharing. It provides multilevel protection for Office 365 and other cloud applicaions, ensuring safety of e-mail and file sharing and also protecting from internal and external threats.

The solution Deep Discovery Email Inspector also includes now mechanisms of protection against the BEC attacks, URL-time-of-click, spam filtering, the advanced protection against threats with scanning of files and the URL addresses, using sandboxes and extraction of passwords for the ciphered investments.

Into other solutions for protection of e-mail Trend Micro she intends to integrate XGen technologies within the next several months.

XGen Security is included in all products

On February 15, 2017 Trend Micro Incorporated announced inclusion of XGen Security technologies, including, machine learning, in all technologies of the company for protection of networks and hybrid cloud environments.

XGen Security includes technologies of protection which are applied in due time. Such approach to a question of security means use of certain technologies, for example, assessment of reputation of web pages and files, an intrusion prevention and control of applications for processing of large volumes of the known and unknown threats.

Such technologies as the behavioural analysis, machine learning and sandboxes are intended for determination of the most difficult detectable unknown threats. All these opportunities are combined with the cloud system of detection of threats of Trend Micro Smart Protection Network which helps to provide operational protection of clients worldwide.

While some solutions of "next generation" rely only on one technology, such as behavioural analysis or machine learning, we consider that when it comes about protection of your organization against a full range of the known and unknown threats, there is no universal solution. We believe that we permanent development on an equal basis with use of specially created technologies of protection are necessary always to be on one step ahead of malefactors. EVA Chen, founder and CEO Trend Micro

XGen Security technologies are optimized for each security level and developed for integration into platforms, important for business, and applications. They provide the joint protection against threats and at the same time a complete overview and management for protection, detection and a response to threats.

2016: XGen Endpoint Security

XGen Endpoint Security is technology of protection of endpoints against a range of threats.

On October 20, 2016 Trend Micro Incorporated announced availability of XGen Endpoint Security technologies in solutions for protection of endpoints.

As a part of software a combination of technologies of protection of different generations and application of each of them in due time that provides effective protection against all range of threats. Approach of Trend Micro in use of the checked methods for department of "good" files and the known threats, then use of more difficult technologies, such as control of applications, protection against exploits, behavioural analysis and the machine learning allowing to define quickly and precisely unknown threats.

Trend Micro in the approach added the high-precision machine learning including the analysis of files before start, using technologies of decrease in level of "noise", such as analysis of uniqueness and "white" lists for reduction of number of false operations.

The name XGen was carefully selected to reflect our approach in use of technologies of different generations. This approach is constructed on the basis of long-term experience and provides users with the best protection against constantly developing range of threats which they face. We use many years machine learning as a part of Trend Micro Smart Protection Network, our global analysis system of threats. Now we raise a bar, including high-precision machine learning in a set of our technologies of protection for endpoints to fight against such advanced threats as, for example, programs racketeers while other suppliers of security aids, including the relatively young companies of "new generation", offer only one or two technologies for protection for all occasions. EVA Chen, CEO Trend Micro

XGen Endpoint Security is available as a part of packets of the products Trend Micro Smart Protection Suites. These packets have possibilities of the integrated protection of endpoints, e-mail and web gateways and provide protection of users during their daily activity, the centralized overview and control that simplifies work of IT services and reduces time of their reaction.
