Vision One Cloud Posture Feature Parity
A high-level comparison of the features available in each version of Trend Vision One Cloud Posture (Conformity).
User Scenarios
- New Trend Micro customer interested in Vision One Cloud Posture
- Existing Trend Vision One customer interested in Vision One Cloud Posture
- Existing Trend Cloud One Conformity or Standalone Conformity customer interested in enhanced Vision One features
- Existing Cloud One or Standalone Conformity customer interested in or already using the Vision One Cloud Data Forwarder
Comparing Vision One Cloud Posture, Cloud One Conformity and Standalone Conformity
Trend Micro currently provides three versions of Cloud Posture:
- Trend Vision One Cloud Posture, including Cloud Posture Assessment
- Trend Cloud One Conformity
- Standalone Conformity
Trend Vision One Cloud Posture
Trend Vision One Cloud Posture is a natively integrated Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) feature set embedded in the Trend Vision One platform. Cloud Posture forms part of the Attack Surface Risk Management suite of Vision One features.
Cloud Posture Assessment
Cloud Posture Assessment is a free offering for existing Vision One customers providing a hint of the features of the Cloud Posture offering with a limited rule-set and scanning capability, which you can later upgrade to the full version in Trend Vision One.
Trend Cloud One Conformity
Trend Cloud One Conformity is a CSPM tool available via Trend Cloud One.
Standalone Conformity
Standalone Conformity is our legacy CSPM offering. As a user of standalone Conformity, you access and manage your organization instance directly via the Conformity standalone application.
Vision One Cloud Data Forwarder
The Vision One Cloud Data Forwarder is a simple way to integrate existing Cloud One Conformity and Standalone Conformity data directly into Vision One, while still managing your CSPM organziation in a separate application. The Cloud Data Forwader is distinct from Vision One Cloud Posture, as it only integrates the data and leaves user and configuration management within the separate CSPM application.
If you are currently a Cloud One or Standalone Conformity customer, the Cloud Data Forwarder allows you to view and analyze your existing Cloud Posture data under Vision One Attack Surface Risk Management.
