Audit outcomes

What you'll find

The AI pulls specific data points to answer your questions.

INVENTORY

Managed asset lists

The AI pulls a list of all endpoints currently under management. You'll see exactly which devices are active in your environment.

LOGS

Endpoint activity

Your agent retrieves specific event logs from individual devices. This lets you inspect what happened on a machine without opening the console.

STATUS

Asset health checks

By querying the endpoint list, your AI can report on the current state of your managed assets.

HUMAN

Manual intervention

The AI identifies the data, but you're the one who decides if a device needs to be isolated or remediated.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

The AI maps your questions to Trend Micro data tools.

  1. Identify assets

    The AI checks which endpoints are currently being managed by your Trend Micro account.
