Custom Cloud App Categories

Add custom cloud app categories that you can use in secure access rules to allow or deny users' access to specific cloud apps.

Trend Micro provides the Cloud Reputation Services that can identify and categorize cloud applications. Trend Micro experts constantly evaluate, assess, and adjust cloud applications' risk levels based on multiple criteria to ensure that customers always have the latest information.

Note:

Custom cloud app categories can be applied to the following:

Risk rules
Internet access rules

You can view and manage the cloud apps that are accessed by your users in the Operations Dashboard app. For more information, see Cloud App Profile Assessment.

Integrated with Cloud Reputation Services, Trend Micro Vision One allows you to group a set of cloud applications based on your corporate compliance, and then add them in internet access control rules to contain access to these apps.

The following table outlines the actions available on the Custom Cloud App Categories tab.
