How to Use the Trend Micro MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I search for old security incidents using Trend Micro and Windsurf?

You run listsecurityalerts to pull all current alerts into context. If you're looking for something older, check the available logs via listendpointactivitylogs. The MCP Server makes it easy to chain these lookups together automatically.

Q: Does the Windsurf agent help audit managed endpoints from Trend Micro?

Yep. You use listmanagedendpoints to get a full list of all assets connected to Vision One. This lets your agent verify that every machine you need protected is actually reporting back to the system.

Q: Can I check connectivity status with Trend Micro and Windsurf?

Sure thing. You use getvisiononeaccount to retrieve the account details and connectivity status of your Vision One instance. It's a simple check that confirms everything is linked up correctly before you start any deep investigation.

Q: What information about detections can I get using Trend Micro and Windsurf?

You run listrecentdetections to see every security detection logged in XDR. This gives your agent a solid, recent history of anything that triggered a warning or an alert across the network.

Perplexity

Investigate security alerts with the MCP Server.

Start by calling `list_security_alerts` to get a master list of all active incidents in the Vision One workbench. From that output, you can dive deep into any specific issue using `get_alert_details`. This process lets your agent understand exactly what triggered an alert and who needs to handle it.

Audit endpoint activity logs.

Need to know what happened on a machine? You can search the history by calling `list_endpoint_activity_logs`. If you suspect a threat came via email, don't forget to check related communications using `list_email_activity_logs`. This gives your agent a complete picture of both system behavior and communication attempts.

Check for suspicious network indicators.

Threat actors often use bad IPs or URLs. Your AI client uses the `list_suspicious_objects` tool to check threat intelligence sources. It can list out known bad files, IP addresses, and domains right away. This gives your agent immediate visibility into external threats that may be targeting your assets.
