TRELLIX

Trellix will be following the theme, “Living Security”, which will showcase the importance of having an XDR platform that is always Learning & Adapting while being Native & Open. The company expects to leverage GITEX as an opportunity to showcase Trellix XDR. Going beyond basic XDR capabilities, this security ecosystem focuses on proactively predicting and prioritising threats instead of just reacting after an attack. This means that an organisations’ SOC spends less time on error-prone fire drills with weeks of investigation, and can respond faster to protect the organisation.

The company’s aim is to reinforce their commitment to customers and partners in the region and demonstrate how the Trellix XDR platform delivers living security to help organisations stay one step ahead of adversaries, adapt to new threats, and accelerate detection and correction.
