Case Study: Auto parts manufacturer achieves proactive cybersecurity and reduced risk with Trend Micro's Trend Vision One

Auto Parts Manufacturer Shifts to Proactive Security Across Multiple Divisions with Trend Vision One™

A leading U.S. auto parts manufacturer with about 3,000 employees and operations across multiple divisions faced rising cyber risk from legacy systems, thousands of endpoints, and sprawling networks that made patching and threat management difficult—challenges echoed by the 2024 State of Smart Manufacturing report naming cybersecurity as a top external obstacle for the industry.

By deploying Trend Vision One and complementary tools (ASRM, XDR for Endpoints, email and cloud security, Apex One and Trend Service One), the company shifted from reactive to proactive security, gaining unified visibility across IT and OT, lowering its cyber risk score, and speeding preemptive responses. The platform plus dedicated Trend support simplified management, freed IT to focus on strategic work, and set the company up for ongoing compliance and improved threat response.
