Trend Vision One™ File Security overview
File Security is a scanner app from Trend Micro™. This scanner can assess files and
cloud
objects for malicious software (malware) and display real-time results. That means
you can
immediately identify and address potential problems in your files.
File Security:
- Gives you flexibility by enabling workflow integration.
- Automates file scanning that is triggered whenever someone uploads new files or changes existing files.
- Provides flexible deployment using Amazon Webs Services (AWS) CloudFormation templates, through software development kit (SDK) implementation, or the command line interface (CLI).
- Supports event-driven architectures.
- Applies machine learning to increase malware detection with expanded capabilities designed to detect novel threats.

Security?
