Exposure Overview

Time-critical security alerts: Alerts related to detected vulnerabilities on Windows or Linux devices that might indicate an ongoing zero-day attack, or high-profile N-day vulnerabilities that Trend Micro recommends you address immediately to bolster your security posture. The primary criteria for issuing a time-critical security alert include the potential impact, whether the vulnerability is highly likely to be exploited, and whether exploit code is publicly available.

To learn more about a highlighted vulnerability, including affected operating systems, available attack prevention/detection rules, and recommended mitigation or remediation options, click View details in the security alert. Trend Micro only issues time-critical security alerts for vulnerabilities with available mitigation options. You may create a new case for the vulnerability or add the vulnerability to an existing case by clicking the options icon () in the vulnerability entry.

For high-profile N-day vulnerabilities, you can view a summary including:

• The number of assessed devices in your environment
• How many assessed devices are affected by the vulnerability
• How many endpoints have been the target of exploit attempts related to the vulnerability
