Object-specific actions allow you to directly respond to threats without leaving the Trend Vision One console.

You can take specific actions on events or objects found on the Trend Vision One console. After triggering a response, the Response Management app creates a task and sends the command to the target.
The following tables describe the actions you can take on containers, email messages, endpoints, networks, and user accounts.
Important
Important
If you intend to perform response actions on virtual machines, ensure that you follow the agent installer deployment instructions carefully. If you clone your own VDI machines, it causes agent IDs to be duplicated and deployed agents cannot perform response actions.

General

Action
Description
Supporting Services
Add to Block List
Adds supported objects such as File SHA-1, URL, IP address, or domain objects to the User-Defined Suspicious Objects List, which blocks the objects on subsequent detections
Note
Note
Adding an object to the User-Defined Suspicious Objects List does not terminate any active processes or connections to the object. To terminate active processes, ensure that you also trigger the Terminate response.
