Case Study: Asia-Pacific-Based Cooperative Social Enterprise Company achieves enterprise-wide, scalable security without adding headcount with Trend Micro

Social Enterprise Cooperative in Asia-Pacific Partners with Trend Micro to Achieve Security Strength

A Singapore‑based social enterprise cooperative in the Asia‑Pacific region (about 650 employees) that runs education, property, grocery and care services consolidated multiple standalone divisions under a single IT umbrella. The small security team faced a monumental task: centralize security across a multicloud environment (AWS/GCP), replace disparate point products, and raise antivirus, detection and dashboard capabilities without adding headcount.

The cooperative partnered with Trend Micro for a phased, collaborative rollout—starting with Managed XDR and expanding to Trend Micro Vision One (with XDR and consolidated dashboards), Deep Discovery Inspector, TippingPoint, endpoint and workload protections, and other solutions—delivering managed detection, virtual patching and cross‑product visibility. The result was a highly scalable, customizable security fabric that improved communication through a common detection framework, reduced false positives, stopped ransomware incidents before they spread, and raised security posture without expanding the team.
