The software also provides visibility and protection for Exchange Online, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive environments.

We use [Trend Micro Cloud App Security] to support & protect our endpoints both in the office and remotely, all totaling about 30 users. It enables us to monitor and alert of any problem issues in real-time and provide the user as well as me, the admin, of any problems via email and a web-based dashboard.
  • Provides a great summarized view of all user end-points via a web-based portal
  • Provides a simple but strong policy format for users and computers
  • Fairly light agent installed on end-points
  • Their web-support is not very clear, even though phone support is fine
  • Remote endpoints that don't have a strong or constant internet connection frequently report as offline - kind of annoying
  • Their settings don't seem to be mapped out very clearly, so there is a lot of hunting to find the right one to change
I think [Trend Micro Cloud App Security] works well for a small to mid-size business. Probably not needed for a very small company though due to cost.
  • Easy to support centrally so reduces issues with in-person support
  • Very efficient and does not seem to slow our users down during the day
  • Very affordable seat costs
It is cheaper than most other business antivirus/malware that I have used before, and has a smaller footprint on endpoints. It also seems to have fewer false positives. It is very easy to install compared to others, and has a solid web-based control panel for administering users accounts. It is very easy to monitor our remote users and apply policies or scans even when they are off-line.

We are using Trend Micro Cloud App Security across our entire organization to help protect against potential threats in our hosted workloads that may not pass through our email security gateway or reside directly on an endpoint where they can be detected by our other antivirus and endpoint protection software.
  • Protects critical workloads like Microsoft 365 and Dropbox.
  • Centralized dashboard for monitoring and management.
  • Can detect pre-existing threats in end-user workloads such as Exchange Online mailboxes.
  • Spam removal is enabled by default for Exchange Online protection policies. This can cause confusion when Cloud App Security is used in conjunction with the spam protection functionality provided by Trend Micro Hosted Email Security.
Trend Micro CAS is especially useful for protecting hosted workloads such as SharePoint Online when you have a medium-to-large organization with a lot of unknowns, including both employees and external guest users who have the potential to (knowingly or not) upload threats and put the rest of your organization and data at risk.
  • CAS gives us peace of mind knowing the file systems we rely on in the cloud are protected the same way they would be if they were sitting in our office. This leads to a reduced risk of downtime that could otherwise limit us from being able to properly support our customers.
We have not yet needed to engage Trend Micro support for this particular product.
Trend Micro Cloud App Security is relatively simple to implement, with most of the complexity coming from the integration with the third-party workloads you are aiming to protect. The policies are easy to customize and logs are easy to analyze. Alerts and reporting both go to the same centralized management console as the other Trend Micro-hosted products.

We use Trend Micro Cloud App Security for our entire organization to help give us visibility and protection for our Exchange Online, Microsoft Teams, Sharepoint, and OneDrive environments. Prior to Trend Micro Cloud App Security, we relied on an email gateway, but Cloud App Security helps us protect our email and the other environments.
  • Ease of Deployment
  • Expanded visibility and protection into Cloud Applications
  • Ease of administration
  • Ability to search logs across all types of logs at one time instead of each type individually.
  • Expanded reporting options
  • Syslog capability directly from Cloud App Security
Cloud App Security is well suited for any organization whether large or small that utilize Cloud Apps like Exchange Online, Microsoft Teams, One Drive, Sharepoint, Dropbox, Google Drive, Gmail, Box, or Salesforce. If organization is not utilizing these cloud apps, then Trend Micro Cloud App Security will likely not be beneficial.
  • expanded protection
  • expanded visibility
  • quicker time to value
We have worked with support on implementation and post-implementation and have always received good, responsive advise.
It is very easy to implement the policies and get around in the platform. It is easy to release from system quarantine if something inadvertently gets added. The Dashboard has a lot of really good info around the types of detections over last 24 hrs, 7 Days, or 30 Days. It would be nice if when doing log searches, one could search all of the "types" at one time. Types include things like Quarantine, Ransomware, Virtual Analyzer, etc.

Trend Micro Cloud App Security is currently being used across my entire organization to protect all of our account types (Student, Faculty, Staff, Departmental and Vendor). We needed a solution for email security but this tool turned out to be a plus with monitoring and protecting SharePoint/OneDrive and Teams. Overall, Trend Micro Cloud App Security has addressed the need to increase our security posture.
  • Very easy to setup, integrate and use/administer.
  • Tech support has always been on point.
  • Product works as expected to monitor and quarantine as needed malicious content.
  • The layered approach and functionality, catches items that 365 security misses.
  • Wish I could customize the notification emails more, like including html code to personalize and highlight messages that my end users see when an item is flagged.
  • Wish there was a word or phrase component to block/flag emails as I can with files, links, senders and domains.
  • Automation of the BEC list would be a plus...such as pulling in an OU or security group so that I do not have to do manually perform this task.
  • We have multiple TrendMicro products. Thus it would be nice to have one dash board to "see" or login at least for ApexOne, CAS, etc.
The product works great when I have to quarantine a mass email attack. Seems students are always susceptible to email base attacks, we are no different, but when one occurs on a mass email basis I can very easy and quickly block/quarantine those emails either by sender, domain, or URL or all three if need be. We have played with the data loss component but it is hard to do anything but "monitor" because there are way too many false positives. Such as with SSNs and bank routing numbers, but I figure any solution provider would experience the same problem. However, even with monitor and notification only, it is useful to make our users aware they are potentially sending personal information.
  • Overall the data loss notification is viewed as a nuisance by our users. However, it allows the organization to be covered (CYA) should there ever be a HIPPA or similar complaint.
  • Instant message quarantine of malicious emails by senders, domains, URL is quite a positive impact.
  • We are able to greatly reduce BEC phishing attacked.
  • A Pro and Con (mostly PRO) is the BEC feature which allows my organization to enforce users to not use their personal email address. User do not like their Yahoo or Gmail correspondences blocked but this has far greater positive potential then negative.
Trend Micro Cloud App Security has never provided me bad service nor been unable to resolve an issue. Their support has also been timely in resolving any issue well within a reasonable time frame.
Trend Micro Cloud App Security is very easy to use. I rate it a 9 of 10 only because of the minor dislikes I have mentioned prior, otherwise I'd give them a 10 of 10.

Just about every facet you can imagine (Faculty, Staff, Students, Department, Vendor) covering every component of business including personal use by our student population.

My team (Network Team) is compromised of three individuals, but just one person is the focal. I have several certs but one's does not need one to support Trend Micro Cloud App Security's CAS. It's very use to use and if you run into any problem their support will literally walk you through any support steps needed.
  • Email security (which now extends to OneDrive & Teams).
  • High Profile User checking (BEC).
  • Ability to quarantine mass or even a singular email attack.
  • security posture awareness even for the end user.
  • Ability to quarantine mass or even a singular email attack.
  • Forcing users to adhere to using their organization issued email account rather then a personal email account.
  • Enforcing a soon to be approved policy restricting personal email usage.
Only a 9 if the product become completely unaffordable. Covid-19 has adversely affected Higher Ed budgets, if that should happen I would lobby hard to find cuts elsewhere...TrendMicro CAS is a necessary tool for any business to have!

  • Prior Experience with the Product
The single most important factor was our prior experience with Trend Micro Cloud App Security. He had their desktop software and moved to ApexOne which was a better experience than expected. Thus, we trusted this cloud solution as well and have been pleased with that decision.
No change here. We are happy with the products and the costs.
No others, we didn't have to.
  • no training
Was very ease to learning. I would at least tell others don't be intimidate and give it a try it's probably easier than you think & believe.
Yes. Our organization typically does with all products and we are pleased with Trend's support.
No
Yes, with how to integrate Cloud App Security with XDR
  • Target (users) Sync
  • ATP Policy tweaking
  • Dashboard setup
  • High Profile (BEC) list...a synch would be nice.
  • Key word policy implementation is non-existent.
  • Viewing the site on my mobile device. Needs an app for quick on the run tasking.
No
Has always been available for us in 2+ years...100% uptime thus far.
On the desktop/laptop it works flawlessly, just need a mobile friendly site or an app to support a workaholic like me.
Extremely easy and will work with you if you need to extend the trial period should something occur to side track you.
Our rep, rather reps were always available and responsive. Only knock if there is one, is the turnover in reps. but the new one always made themselves available.
Year to year renewal. They provided a multi-year package that provided additional savings but my organization prefers to do annuals.
Compare with other peers to see if you are getting the best price. Also, ask about all your freebies...was happy to learn that Phishing Insight was included.

We are utilizing Trend Micro Cloud App Security for our Microsoft 365 spam and email security. It replaced an outdated spam filter. It has great in-depth spam protection features as well as the high-profile user learning. We have had multiple instances where Trend Micro Cloud App Security was able to detect and quarantine spam and notify me as well--a very comforting feature in a very uncertain time.
  • Great alerting system
  • Blocks suspicious links from emails before they reach the end-user
  • Pre-execution machine learning
  • The dashboard could be a little easier to navigate through
If a colleague was looking to replace their current antivirus solution I would strongly recommend Trend Micro Cloud App Security as they have a whole suite of options available for on-premises and cloud environments. Trend Micro Cloud App Security is the perfect out-of-the-box solution for the Microsoft Office 365 environment.
  • Quickly identified possible threats and was able to block people who were sending infected emails
To date we had only utilized Symantec Small Business Suite for all of our antivirus needs. We had only moved to the cloud environment during the summer of 2020, and after doing so I'm not sure that I would ever change from Trend Micro Cloud App Security. The cost and features all are a great fit for the small to medium-sized business such as ours.
