DALLAS, Nov. 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- As cloud
adoption continues to accelerate, Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO:
4704; TSE: 4704), a global leader in security software and
solutions, today announced the availability of its cloud and data
center platform, Trend Micro™ Deep Security™ for Amazon Web
Services (AWS) on AWS Marketplace, an online store providing
software and services for use on AWS.
"Trend Micro is constantly working on new ways to improve
security and reduce its operational impact for developers and
operations teams working on AWS," said Mark
Nunnikhoven, vice president, cloud & emerging
technologies, Trend Micro. "Providing Deep Security via AWS
Marketplace is yet another way we are providing additional security
tools. This user-friendly implementation is a great way to meet
your shared security responsibilities on top of the reliability and
protection already offered by AWS."
Deep Security provides automated cloud security on AWS,
including intrusion prevention (IPS), anti-malware with web
reputation, integrity monitoring, log inspection, and host
firewall, in one comprehensive offering. Now expanded to be offered
via AWS Marketplace and integrated with leading management tools
such as Chef, Puppet, SaltStack, AWS CloudFormation or AWS
OpsWorks, Deep Security automates security provisioning for rapid
protection of instances from the latest in vulnerabilities with
workload-aware security.
"We are excited to offer Trend Micro Deep Security on AWS
Marketplace, giving customers more tools for additional layers of
security for their workloads on the AWS Cloud," said Terry Hanold, Vice President, AWS Platform and Marketplace, Amazon Web
Services, Inc. "Our customers want solutions with a simple purchase
and deployment process that complements the agility and flexibility
of the cloud, and the ability to easily deploy offerings like Deep
Security from AWS Marketplace accomplishes that."
The AWS shared security model defines distinct roles for
security. AWS is responsible for securing the underlying
infrastructure, and end-organizations are responsible for
protecting the operating system, applications, data, and beyond. As
an Advanced Technology Partner in the AWS Partner Network (APN),
Trend Micro helps customers fulfill their security responsibilities
with proven security controls delivered by Deep Security.
Organizations worldwide use Deep Security to fulfill their
security responsibilities on AWS. Working with Cloudticity, a
company that focuses exclusively on HIPAA-compliant solutions for
AWS, Great Lakes Health Connect provides doctors access to
information to save lives when they need it. Their network serves
six million people and includes over 120 hospitals in the state of
Michigan.
"GLHC partners with more than 4,000 diverse organizations,
including over 10,000 doctors, and as part of our services, deliver
millions of messages each day while warehousing and providing
access to the community health records for six million people.
Flexible, scalable security that can change as dynamically as we do
is paramount to our organization," said Barry Nowak, manager of technical support &
operations at Great Lakes Health Connect. "We are growing
quickly to meet our community and partners' needs, and Deep
Security's robust capabilities and seamless integration with AWS
make it possible to meet and exceed our security requirements."
