Trend Micro
Cloud Edge brings together the benefits of a
next-generation on-premises firewall and the convenience of security as a service
for MSPs
(Managed Service Providers). Cloud Edge intelligently
combines application control with user and port identification for multilayer protection.
URL
filtering, bandwidth control, intrusion protection, anti-malware scanning, email security,
and
web reputation security provide additional protection from network breaches and business
disruptions. By deeply scanning and filtering network packets on-premises or through
the
cloud, Cloud Edge stops threats at the gateway. Virtual
Private Network (VPN) support also secures connections from mobile devices, corporate
sites,
and remote employees.
Deploy the Cloud Edge gateway to customer
offices and use Cloud Edge Cloud Console to centrally
control user access and security policies. Optionally, you can use single sign-on
to access
Cloud Edge Cloud Console through Trend Micro Remote
Manager. Remote Manager works with Cloud Edge by providing a single point of entry
to access
graphical reports and summarized dashboard data for supported gateways and Trend Micro
products. Remote Manager also helps you to manage licensing and billing of multiple
customers.
The following illustration shows how Cloud Edge works.
