About Trend Micro MCP Server
Connect your AI agent exclusively to your Trend Micro Vision One security infrastructure. Bypass complex SIEM dashboards and interact directly with high-fidelity telemetry, XDR active detections, and structural security alerts utilizing only natural language. Allow your SOC analysts to extract network observables, check suspicious URLs, or isolate a machine's activity dynamically without writing API scripts.
Cline operates autonomously inside VS Code. it reads your codebase, plans a strategy, and executes multi-step tasks including Trend Micro tool calls without waiting for prompts between steps. Connect 8 tools through Vinkius and Cline can fetch data, generate code, and commit changes in a single autonomous run.
What you can do
- Alert Management — Directly list active structural security alerts and dive unconditionally into specific
alert_idmetadata to evaluate impact - Endpoint Scanning — Identify and extract details connecting telemetry to physical devices by listing all your deployed and managed endpoints (Assets)
- Threat Intelligence — Query live active indicators of compromise (IoC) mapped as suspicious objects (IPs, URLs, Files) present in your network sphere
- Forensic Logs — Instruct your AI to hunt detailed logs surrounding targeted email workflows or deep endpoint process activities
- Raw Detections — Observe XDR broad-level threats and raw detections that haven't been forcefully promoted to an active alert status yet
The Trend Micro MCP Server exposes 8 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Cline in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
