Case Study: Trend Micro achieves rapid, scalable cloud security and 10-minute deployments with Amazon Web Services

Trend Micro - Customer Case Study

Trend Micro, founded in 1988, is a global leader in server and cloud security and an AWS APN Advanced Technology Partner. As customers moved to AWS, Trend Micro faced the challenge of demonstrating that strong, scalable security could be deployed in the cloud while addressing customer concerns and accelerating delivery of its Deep Security product as a managed service.

Trend Micro built Deep Security as a Service entirely on AWS—leveraging EC2, ELB, Auto Scaling, RDS Multi‑AZ, S3, Route 53 and AWS support—which improved testing, stability and operational resilience (notably fast RDS backups/restores). The result: faster deployments (solution live in ~10 minutes), update cycles cut from weeks to 1–2 days, steady 2.5% weekly customer growth since launch, millions of protection hours delivered, and stronger go‑to‑market support through AWS programs like Test Drive and APN.
