Incorporated
(TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), the leader in cloud security, today
announced its hybrid cloud security integration with the newly launched AWS
Gateway Load Balancer (GWLB), a service that makes it easy to deploy, scale,
and manage your third-party virtual appliances with Amazon Web Services (AWS).
This integration provides customers with the ability to use trusted vendor
appliances, like those from Trend Micro, in a way that is auto-scalable and
operates to continuously meet security needs in an as-a-service format.

 

In today’s economic reality, companies are quickly
migrating their infrastructure into a hybrid cloud model to meet the demands of
remote work. Gartner stated in a recent report, “Dynamic cloud realities demand
that controls automatically adapt to the protected workloads because an IP
address alone is no longer sufficient for security.^[1]” Trend Micro Cloud One —
Network Security with GWLB delivers protection that fits the dynamic nature of
cloud migration.

 

“To maintain functional IT operations, meet compliance
standards, and protect complex systems in the cloud, security is a concern that
must be proactively addressed,” said Mark Nunnikhoven, vice president of cloud
research for Trend Micro and AWS Community Hero. “Customers need an appliance
that adapts to increased volume and automatically provides centralized
implementation of network security with less friction. GWLB with Cloud One —
Network Security help solve this problem for security teams.”

 

Security teams using GWLB with Trend Micro for their
hybrid cloud security can benefit from high availability, scaling, and load
balancing while maintaining all product features and benefits.

 

“As companies move their infrastructure in the
cloud, they are looking for ways to easily insert, scale, and manage security
appliances in their network topologies,” said Mayumi Hiramatsu, Vice
President, Amazon EC2 Networking, Amazon Web Services, Inc. “Trend Micro
is an AWS Advanced Technology Partner with a long-standing history of providing
security solutions to help customers address their portion of the shared
responsibility model. AWS Gateway Load Balancer with Trend Micro’s security
solution is now available to more than 290,000 active buyers in AWS Marketplace
and can help our shared customers address their network security needs in the
cloud.”

 

Today’s integration with GWLB coincides with Trend
Micro’s release of its Cloud One — Network Security solution, now available in
AWS Marketplace.
