Trend Micro has adopted the NVIDIA Agentic AI Safety blueprint to enhance security for artificial intelligence systems throughout their development and deployment lifecycle. This initiative is part of Trend Micro's broader strategy to address the growing security challenges associated with AI technologies.

The "Trend Secure AI Factory" is a new offering built on Trend Vision One and Trend Vision One – Sovereign Private Cloud platforms. It aims to mitigate risks across various components such as data, models, microservices, infrastructure, networks, and users. This comprehensive approach is designed to safeguard AI systems from potential threats and vulnerabilities.

Trend Micro's Secure AI Factory supports NVIDIA NeMo, a tool for continuous model safety evaluation and improvement. The integration also includes Trend Cybertron, a cybersecurity-specific large language model, which is deployable via NVIDIA's universal LLM NIM microservices. This collaboration is intended to enhance the security of AI models, particularly against threats such as poisoning and misuse during training and evaluation phases.

The solution also incorporates Data Risk Posture Management (DSPM) to protect sensitive datasets. This is achieved by leveraging NVIDIA AI Enterprise components, including NVIDIA Morpheus and NVIDIA RAPIDS. These technologies provide essential guardrails, network protection, and secure AI agent interactions through Trend Zero Trust Secure Access (ZTSA) AI Service Access.

ANZ Field CTO at Trend Micro, Mick McCluney, said, "Global organisations are racing to innovate with agentic AI systems, and there’s a critical need to ensure the safety and security of these systems. The NVIDIA Agentic AI Safety blueprint provides an important enabling technology that works in conjunction with Trend’s threat intelligence to support safety across all phases of the AI lifecycle – from model adoption, deployment, and runtime protection – allowing customers to innovate with AI faster."

VP of Strategic Enterprise Partnerships at NVIDIA, Pat Lee, added, "Embedding real-time, autonomous threat detection into enterprise AI factories empowers organisations to confidently scale innovation without compromising on protection. By integrating advanced cybersecurity directly into AI factories with Trend Micro and NVIDIA Agentic AI blueprints, enterprise data, models, and workloads can remain resilient and trusted – unlocking the full potential of AI in a secure, accelerated environment."

Director General at the Paris Peace Forum, Justin Vaïsse, stated, "As AI becomes increasingly embedded in critical systems, its safety and security must be treated as global priorities. We welcome the role of companies like Trend Micro in advancing responsible AI by contributing tangible, scalable solutions to multi-actor partnerships. This kind of cross-sector collaboration is essential to fostering trust and resilience in the technologies shaping our shared future."
