Trend Micro Vulnerability Protection
Advanced Vulnerability Shielding for Endpoints
Blocks network-based exploits and zero-day threats with intelligent vulnerability shielding
Overview
Today’s enterprise endpoints face more sophisticated attacks than ever, especially when they are outside the corporate network and no longer protected by multiple layers of security. In addition, point of sales devices and networked devices with embedded operating systems are difficult to update and patch. To keep your business fully protected from breach or targeted attack, all types of endpoints require a blended approach to protection that secures data and applications from hacking attempts, Web threats, and the increasing threat of vulnerabilities being exploited remotely.
Trend Micro Vulnerability Protection provides earlier, stronger endpoint protection by supplementing client-level antivirus and anti-malware security with pro-active virtual patching. A high-performance, engine monitors traffic for new specific vulnerabilities using host-based intrusion prevention filters as well as zero-day attack monitoring. So you can detect network protocol deviations, suspicious content that signals an attack, or security policy violations. Vulnerability Protection prevents these vulnerabilities from being exploited with easy and fast–to-deploy filters that provide full protection before patches can be deployed. When used in conjunction with additional Trend Micro endpoint products, Vulnerability Protection provides the industry’s broadest range of protection for endpoints, whether they are on the network, travelling, or remote.

Key Benefits
- Eliminates risk exposure due to missing patches
- Extends the life of legacy and end-of-support operating systems like Windows XP
- Reduces down-time for recovery with incremental protection against zero day attacks
- Allows patching on your own terms and timelines
- Lowers potential legal exposure by improving data security compliance
- Enhances firewall protection for remote and mobile enterprise endpoints
Vulnerability Protection stops zero-day threats immediately on your physical and virtual desktops and laptops—on and off the network. Using host-level intrusion prevention system (HIPS) filters, behavioral, statistical, heuristic and protocol enforcement technologies, Vulnerability Protection shields against vulnerabilities before a patch is available or deployable. This allows you to protect your critical platforms from both known and unknown threats including legacy operating systems such as Windows XP and new systems like Windows 10. To support a layered approach to security, Vulnerability Protection integrates with Trend Micro Complete User Protection solutions to deliver multiple layers of interconnected threat and information protection.
Trend Micro Vulnerability Protection is very scalable with options for multiple servers to ensure endpoint deployment for even the largest of organizations. As an on-premise software application, Vulnerability Protection integrates with other Trend Micro threat protection solutions to enhance the overall threat and malware protection of your endpoints.
