Dallas – – September 29, 2026 -- TrendAI, the AI security business unit of Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), has expanded its integration with Claude's Compliance API inside TrendAI Vision One, giving security teams visibility into AI agent prompts, responses and tool calls alongside existing security telemetry.

Integration now covers Claude Code and Cowork session transcripts

The expanded integration pulls in session records for Claude Code and Cowork from Claude Enterprise, each tied to a verified user. It builds on the initial TrendAI-Anthropic integration announced in June 2026, extending coverage to how engineering and knowledge-work teams use AI agents on a daily basis.

Pittsburgh – September 29, 2026 -- A California-based inventor has developed INTRACE, a security control plane designed to verify identity and generate tamper-evident records for every digital interaction rather than only at login. InventHelp, the Pittsburgh-based invention-services firm, announced the technology is now available for licensing or sale to manufacturers and marketers.

INTRACE targets unverified requests across AI, payments, and connected devices

Billions of digital requests occur every second across apps, payment systems, and AI-driven interactions, with most trusted automatically, according to the inventor. INTRACE is built to authenticate the origin of each request and flag unauthorized or disputed activity as it happens, rather than relying solely on perimeter checks.

Palo Alto, Calif. – – September 29, 2026 -- Salt Security has launched Salt Claude Connect, an integration that gives security teams continuous, read-only visibility into Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers connected to their Claude Enterprise organization. The tool works with Claude's Compliance API to surface organization-managed MCP servers directly in a security team's Salt inventory.

Unsecured MCP servers nearly tripled in months, according to Trend Micro research

The number of MCP servers exposed on the public internet with no authentication or encryption climbed to 1,467, a near-tripling cited by Salt Security, with most hosted on major cloud providers and offering direct read access to underlying data. As enterprises scale AI adoption, MCP servers extend what AI environments can reach, and in large organizations they can be added faster than security teams can track them.

Scottsdale, Ariz. – September 29, 2026 -- Appspace unveiled Appspace Context, a new architecture that lets workplace software adapt in real time to an employee's role, location, schedule, and surrounding conditions, at its WOW26 conference.

Dallas – – September 29, 2026 -- TrendAI, the enterprise AI security unit of Trend Micro (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), has entered private preview with TrendAI Vision One Autonomous Vulnerability Discovery, a service that pairs an agentic AI engine with validation from the Zero Day Initiative (ZDI), described as the world's largest vendor-agnostic bug bounty program.

Engine outperforms rivals on CyberGym leaderboard

The service runs on an agentic system code-named AESIR, built primarily on Anthropic models, and deployed and operated on Amazon Bedrock from Amazon Web Services. When tested against the CyberGym benchmarking framework, the engine scored higher than both single-model and other agentic systems on the leaderboard. TrendAI states internal benchmarking shows its models identify more true-positive vulnerabilities with fewer false positives than leading vulnerability scanning and static analysis tools.
