Trellix Automation Use Cases

Trellix ePO (ePolicy Orchestrator) and EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) offer several automation use cases when integrated with third-party applications. Some common automation use cases include:

1. Threat Intelligence Integration: Trellix ePO and EDR can integrate with threat intelligence platforms to automate the ingestion of threat feeds, enriching threat detection and response capabilities. This allows for real-time threat analysis, proactive threat hunting, and automated response actions based on threat intelligence.
2. Security Orchestration: Integration with security orchestration tools enables the automation of incident response workflows. Trellix ePO and EDR can trigger automated actions such as quarantining files, blocking suspicious processes, or initiating remediation steps based on predefined playbooks or incident response workflows.
3. SIEM Integration: Trellix ePO and EDR can be integrated with Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems, allowing for the automated correlation and analysis of security events across the organization. This enables the detection of complex threats, centralized visibility, and streamlined incident management.
4. Ticketing System Integration: By integrating with ticketing systems or IT service management tools, Trellix ePO and EDR can automate incident ticket creation, tracking, and resolution. This ensures that security incidents are properly documented, assigned to the appropriate teams, and resolved within defined SLAs.
5. Asset and Configuration Management Integration: Integration with asset management and configuration management systems allows for automated asset discovery and management. Trellix ePO and EDR can automatically identify new endpoints, enforce security policies, and ensure that all endpoints are properly protected and compliant with security standards.
6. Automated Remediation: Trellix ePO and EDR can automate the remediation process for identified security vulnerabilities or threats. This includes the automated deployment of patches, software updates, or security policies to endpoints, ensuring that vulnerabilities are promptly addressed and mitigated.

By leveraging these automation use cases through integration with third-party applications, organizations can enhance their security operations, improve incident response capabilities, and streamline their overall security management processes. Automation with Trellix ePO and EDR enables organizations to detect and respond to threats more efficiently, reduce manual effort, and strengthen their overall security posture.

Trellix Search Use Cases

Trellix ePO (ePolicy Orchestrator) and EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) offer search capabilities that can be leveraged by external third-party applications through their APIs and integration points. Some of the search capabilities of Trellix ePO and EDR that external third parties can utilize include:

1. Endpoint Search: External applications can search for specific endpoints based on criteria such as IP addresses, hostnames, user names, or other attributes. This allows users to retrieve information about specific endpoints for analysis, monitoring, or management purposes.
2. Threat Intelligence Search: Third-party applications can search for threat intelligence data within Trellix ePO and EDR. This includes searching for indicators of compromise (IOCs), malicious file hashes, or suspicious behavioral patterns. Users can retrieve relevant threat intelligence information to enhance their own security operations.
3. Event Log Search: Trellix ePO and EDR generate event logs that capture security events and incidents. External applications can search and query these event logs based on various parameters such as time range, event type, or severity. This enables users to investigate security incidents, perform log analysis, or generate custom reports.
4. Malware and Virus Signature Search: Third-party applications can search for specific malware or virus signatures within Trellix ePO and EDR. This allows users to retrieve information about known threats, their characteristics, and associated mitigation measures.
5. Compliance Policy Search: External applications can search for specific compliance policies or security configurations within Trellix ePO and EDR. This includes searching for policy settings, checking compliance status, or retrieving details about security controls.
6. Asset Inventory Search: Trellix ePO and EDR maintain an inventory of managed endpoints. Third-party applications can search and query this inventory to retrieve information about managed assets, their attributes, or installed security software versions.

By integrating with Trellix ePO and EDR and leveraging these search capabilities, external third-party applications can enhance their functionality, retrieve targeted data from McAfee ePO and EDR for analysis or reporting purposes, and integrate with other security tools or workflows. These integrations enable seamless access to Trellix ePO and EDR data, allowing organizations to effectively manage security incidents, investigate threats, and maintain compliance.

Trellix connected with HyprEdge allows administrators to leverage the power of HyprEdge Federated Search to provide comprehensive and scalable search functionality across Trellix and other enterprise data sources enhancing productivity.
