SentinelOne vs Trend Micro

Trend Micro

Platform

Intuitive, Unified Platform

Eliminate the overhead and administrative burden of managing a complex and demanding console. SentinelOne delivers a single, lightweight agent and an intuitive, cloud-native console for deep visibility across your entire enterprise—from endpoints to cloud to identity.

Trend Micro

Platform Requires Multiple Modules

Although Trend Micro has tried to unify its offerings, customers are still required to use multiple modules in order to run effective detections. This yields excessive alert volumes, complex management and additional costs.

Purple AI is the Most Advanced AI Security Analyst

Accelerate SecOps with natural language querying on first- and third-party data, hunting quick starts, natural language summaries of results and events, and suggested follow-up questions. Customers have unlimited queries, and it’s all included in Singularity Complete.

Trend Micro

Limited, Unintuitive AI

Trend Micro offers an extremely limited set of AI assistant capabilities, none of which are integrated with the rest of the console. For investigations, customers must navigate multiple screens to leverage the AI assistant.

Deployment

Single Agent and Unified Platform

SentinelOne utilizes a single, lightweight agent and an intuitive cloud console to provide unified visibility, fast investigations, and control over your entire endpoint infrastructure. With flexible deployment options, this consolidation drastically reduces complexity and data costs, and frees up your team to focus on security, not tool management.

Trend Micro

Difficult to Operationalize

Managing Trend Micro can be a full-time job. Customers deploying Trend Micro need stringent training for effective use of the platform. Constant tuning of detections and evaluation of alerts is necessary.

Detections

Stop More Threats with Behavioral AI

SentinelOne’s Behavioral AI engines autonomously detect and block malicious activity in real-time, even zero-day and fileless attacks.

Trend Micro

Poor Detection Efficacy

Trend Micro customers are plagued with alert fatigue and unmanageable alert volumes. In the latest MITRE ATT&CK Evaluations, Trend Micro generated 64,000+ alerts compared to 71 for SentinelOne.

Investigations

Fast and Easy Investigations, Powered by Purple AI

Purple AI’s threat hunting quick starts, AI-enriched alert summaries, and guided investigations allow analysts to easily conduct deeper investigations and scale response.

Trend Micro

Slow and Ineffective Investigations

Investigations are cumbersome and require manual steps across multiple Trend Micro interfaces. With a poor user experience and limited context, customers experience delayed and ineffective investigations.

Response

Lightning-Fast Remediation

When a threat is detected, SentinelOne’s extensive automation and one-click remediation and rollback feature instantly reverses malicious changes, drastically outperforming manual remediation processes.

Trend Micro

Limited Capabilities

Trend Micro’s remediation capabilities are highly manual and do not leverage automation for heavy workloads. Customers are limited to a full system reset, and no rollback support is offered.
