Trend Micro, a Japan-based cybersecurity provider with U.S. headquarters in Irving,  is collaborating with Dell Technologies and NVIDIA on a suite of co-developed, pre-approved OEM appliance offerings. The project’s goal: supporting “secure AI-powered infrastructure solutions that scale with the needs of global enterprises.”

“We understand that IT teams are stretched thin,” Trend Micro COO Kevin Simzer said in a statement. “That’s why our platform is designed to automate, streamline, and unify security operations—whether in the cloud, on-premises, hybrid environments, or even air-gapped systems.”

“Our goal is to meet customers where they are, and that same philosophy drives our strategic alliances,” he added. “We’re delighted to work with Dell Technologies and NVIDIA to overcome the challenges that too often get in the way of effective threat protection.”

Addressing IT complexity and integration challenges

Trend Micro said that faced with increasing risk levels and AI-enabled adversaries, global enterprises and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are trying to secure their distributed, hybrid, and edge computing environments.

The company said, however, that IT complexity and integration challenges can slow adoption and expose them to cyber risks.

As a result, Trend Micro says many companies are demanding that their technology vendors remove the burden of “DIY security” by delivering pre-validated and co-engineered security and infrastructure offerings.  Trend said that while packaged for simplicity, these solutions remain fully customizable to meet the unique needs of each environment and offer a clearer starting point for enterprises navigating complex security decisions.

Closing security and skills gaps

Customers are looking for simplified procurement, built-in support, and a direct line to trusted vendors to accelerate time to value and close skills and security gaps, Trend Micro said.

As part of this effort, Trend Micro said it’s offering Trend Vision One Sovereign Private Cloud, in collaboration with Dell, to support rapid deployment with a pre-integrated package that includes software, hardware, support, and deployment services.

The company said they simplify adoption, accelerate time to value, and help close security and skills gaps across complex IT environments.

Trend Micro said the offering is “a best-of-both-worlds approach” in which:

• Trend will supply its industry-leading AI-driven cybersecurity platform, Trend Vision One. It features Cyber Risk Exposure Management, Extended Detection and Response (XDR), and comprehensive protection across email, cloud, network, endpoint, data, and identity layers.
• Dell provides scalable infrastructure and deployment via Dell PowerFlex for high-performance, software-defined enterprise storage across diverse workloads.
• NVIDIA powers the solution via the NVIDIA Morpheus cybersecurity AI framework and NVIDIA NIM microservices, delivering real-time, GPU-accelerated threat detection, and AI-driven analysis that enables enterprises to reduce dwell time and act on risks faster than ever.

Trend Micro said its AI-powered cybersecurity platform protects hundreds of thousands of organizations and millions of individuals across clouds, networks, devices, and endpoints. The company has 7,000 employees across 70 countries.
