The integration brings AI-driven threat detection, guided investigations and agentic security operations to customer-controlled infrastructure, addressing growing data sovereignty demands.
TrendAI™, the enterprise business unit of Trend Micro, is integrating NVIDIA Nemotron™ open models into TrendAI Vision One™ for Sovereign and Private Cloud (SPC), enabling organisations to run AI-assisted security operations entirely within infrastructure they control.
The collaboration targets governments and regulated industries that require strict data residency, operational control and protection of sensitive security information. The platform supports deployment across private clouds, sovereign clouds and on-premises environments, without relying on external AI inference services.
The move comes as the UAE accelerates its national AI agenda while facing growing cybersecurity and data governance challenges. The UAE Cyber Security Council has reported thwarting nearly 750,000 cyberattack attempts targeting vital sectors in recent months. Separately, an IBM Institute for Business Value study found that 74% of surveyed UAE executives find meeting data residency and sovereignty requirements challenging.
NVIDIA Nemotron models bring AI-driven threat detection, security reasoning and guided investigation into customer-controlled environments. The platform correlates security telemetry, identifies complex threat patterns and attack chains, and helps teams prioritise responses. Protective actions are governed by organisation-defined policies, with security teams retaining oversight.
“Organisations should not have to send their most sensitive security data outside their own boundaries to benefit from AI.”
— Salah Suleiman, Managing Director, South Gulf, TrendAI™
“Open models give organisations the transparency and control to run on their own terms, which is critical for sovereign environments,” said John Fanelli, Vice President, Enterprise Software, NVIDIA.
The collaboration also includes NVIDIA OpenShell to strengthen security and visibility over AI-agent activity.
TrendAI Vision One SPC is available now. The integration allows organisations in sectors such as banking, energy, healthcare and government to adopt AI-driven security while keeping sensitive data within their designated infrastructure.
