As the adoption of generative AI accelerates across industries, enterprises are simultaneously raising their expectations for the security and stability of AI systems. Trend Micro has announced its integration of NVIDIA’s Agentic AI Safety framework and, through its Trend Secure AI Factory solution, now offers end-to-end security throughout the entire AI lifecycle—from model development and deployment to real-world operations.
Trend Micro warns that without robust cybersecurity mechanisms, enterprises deploying Agentic AI systems may face significant risks such as data leakage, model poisoning, and infrastructure-level attacks. Built upon the Trend Vision One platform, the Trend Secure AI Factory consolidates security governance across sovereign and private cloud environments, reinforcing defenses across all layers of the AI factory.
To address the mounting complexity of AI-related cybersecurity threats, Trend Micro has also integrated its proprietary LLM engine, Trend Cybertron, with NVIDIA’s general-purpose LLM NIM microservices. This synergy delivers a scalable, cross-cloud inference architecture capable of real-time threat detection and response, extending protection to hybrid cloud and on-premises environments while enhancing the resilience and trustworthiness of AI workloads.
The Trend Secure AI Factory boasts a suite of core capabilities, including Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), CI/CD pipeline validation, API access control, and comprehensive protection for microservices and the NVIDIA NIM framework via Trend Container Security. Additionally, by integrating the NVIDIA NeMo training and evaluation framework, Trend Micro ensures that LLMs are safeguarded against model poisoning and misuse from the earliest training stages.
Kevin Simzer, Chief Operating Officer of Trend Micro, emphasized that with the widespread adoption of Agentic AI, cybersecurity must no longer be an afterthought but rather a foundational pillar of innovation. “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.”
NVIDIA underscored that this collaboration not only enhances the operational efficiency of enterprise AI deployments but also strengthens data privacy and regulatory compliance. In response to the rising demand for sovereign AI solutions, Trend Micro further leverages Zero Trust access principles and dedicated cloud governance technologies to ensure that every interaction between users and AI agents is authenticated and protected.
The Paris Peace Forum has also expressed support for such interdisciplinary cooperation, recognizing AI as a pivotal global technology. Secure and scalable application architectures are, it affirmed, the bedrock of a future built on trusted technological ecosystems.
