Trend Micro’s FedRAMP Authorised Products Meet Government Needs
Trend Vision One™ enables agencies to automatically correlate data across your endpoints, servers, and cloud workloads, putting control back in the hands of security analysts.
Native endpoint and cloud sensors enable agencies to quickly detect complex attacks that bypass prevention. This provides an unmatched understanding of the activity data in government environments and a balanced approach to zero trust. The visibility and efficiency provided by Trend Vision One™ make great security teams even better, enabling them to do more with less. The solution brings the highest level of protection to federal and compliance-driven organisations targeted by threat actors.
Trend Vision One™ offers complete protection across all security environments. The solution automates security controls, priorities threats based on leading threat intelligence and AI analysis, and protects against malware and unauthorised behaviours.
Additional capabilities from Cloud One enable agencies to unify their zero trust goals across all pillars outlined in the Zero Trust Maturity Model 2.0 and the Department of Defence Zero Trust Overlays.
Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Zero Trust
In April 2023, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency released the second version of its Zero Trust Maturity Model (ZTMM 2.0). In this model, CISA calls for investments in visibility and analytical capabilities across the Zero Trust Pillars, including having a robust understanding across devices, applications, data, networks, and identities. Insights provided by FedRAMP solutions like Trend Vision One™ cut across all these disparate pillars in an organisation’s environment.
Department of Defence (DoD) Zero Trust
In June 2024, the Department of Defence released 400 pages of Zero Trust Overlays for military departments and DoD agencies to achieve the goal of building zero trust environments across the department. These overlays highlight the need for specific endpoint security solutions and solutions that provide deep visibility and analytical capabilities across agency environments.
FedRAMP Memo Update
In July 2024, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the White House released a memo that reauthorized the FedRAMP programme and kicked off a process to expand access to FedRAMP commercial solutions. This process gives agencies the ability to move towards best in breed solutions to help them achieve their zero trust security goals.
Future Government Approach to Zero Trust
In addition to the policies and guidance put out to help agencies achieve their zero trust goals over the last several years, there have been reports that indicate a new administrative effort to move agencies forward in achieving zero trust goals.
This, coupled with the transition to a new administration, means that agencies will see additional requirements and prioritisation around cybersecurity. Agencies will need to understand their environments and invest in FedRAMP compliant solutions that help them understand threats from around the world.
With these authorisations, Trend is positioned to meet agencies no matter where they are in their zero trust journey and provide visibility and analytics for making critical decisions to secure their networks, data, applications, devices, and identities.
