Part of Trend Micro's broader Vision One platform, it leverages Trend Micro's extensive global threat intelligence network and integrates with XDR capabilities for cross-layer detection. Its Writing Style DNA technology uses AI to detect BEC attacks by analyzing the writing patterns of executives and flagging emails that deviate from established styles.
