# Trend Micro Cloud One Workload Security Connector Guide

Trend Micro Cloud One™ Workload Security protects endpoints, servers, and cloud workloads through unified visibility, management, and role-based access control. The **Balbix integration with Trend Micro Cloud One™ Workload Security** ingests IT infrastructure assets and associated vulnerabilities discovered by Workload Security.

Balbix leverages AI to aggregate, normalize, and deduplicate ingested data, along with information integrated from your existing IT and cybersecurity tools. This creates a unified view of your entire asset inventory, including vulnerabilities and their business and operational context. Balbix’s AI models then analyze this data to provide insights such as deployment gap analysis, risk-based vulnerability prioritization (with detailed ranking and scoring), and risk quantification. This process delivers a comprehensive assessment of risk, whether for a single asset, groups of assets, or your entire enterprise, enabling more informed and effective security decisions.
