When combined with Trend's digital twin capabilities it will help to transform security operations by proactively mitigating security risks. To learn more about Trend Micro's Agentic SIEM technology, please visit: Dave Gruber, Principal Cybersecurity Analyst at ESG:"As the cybersecurity stack increasingly becomes AI driven, the security data layer must evolve to support data-hungry agentic capabilities, including infusing agentic AI into core SIEM functions. Trend Vision One Agentic SIEM enters the SIEM market at a pivotal time, leveraging Agentic AI from the ground up to drive speed, performance, and a new level of risk-driven, contextual insights to rapidly mitigate cyber threat activity." SIEM technology has been around for decades, but users face longstanding issues including cost, complexity, alert overload, and passive data lakes. In addition, traditional SIEMs rely on manual configuration and static parsers, which can't keep up with the pace or variety of modern data sources. Trend's Agentic SIEM was built from the ground up to address these challenges, leveraging the next generation of AI technology to proactively think, learn, and act. Acting independently, it cuts through alert noise, reducing workloads for overburdened security teams. What used to take weeks of setup is now automated by Agentic AI — it learns, maps, and optimizes data as it goes. Customers using Trend's agentic SIEM will improve their security and efficiency with: 900+ data sources supported since launch on August 1 to improve visibility, context and threat detection Three-day onboarding for new log types—with reduction to three hours by 2026—to reduce the risk of the unknown in enterprise environments Trend's proven XDR capabilities, with six native security sensors across endpoint, cloud, email, networks, servers, and identity. Agentic SIEM brings in third-party telemetry to provide a full view of the environment. Up to seven years of archival data retention and two years of analytic retention for enhanced detection, threat hunting, and compliance support. Rachel Jin, Chief Enterprise Platform Officer at Trend: "Agentic SIEM is a major stepping stone to our long-term vision for full, AI-driven SecOps. It's a future in which security teams will have more time to work on strategic tasks, safe in the knowledge that our agentic AI has their backs. With this launch, Trend is once again laying down a marker for cybersecurity innovation and global market leadership." Agentic SIEM has the potential to supercharge SIEM across a variety of use cases: Threat Detection and Response: Replaces manual log and alert monitoring with autonomous data analysis, anomaly detection and response—reducing time to detect and mitigate threats. Compliance Support: Combines extended data retention with the ability to search archival logs—meeting audit and regulatory requirements with ease. Incident Investigation: Replaces manual, time-consuming and error-prone investigations with automated data correlation from multiple sources, to accelerate the process and enhance accuracy. The potential to combine Agentic SIEM with Trend's latest digital twin technology is a revolutionary opportunity for customers. Doing so enables proactive mitigation of security risks impacting these virtual models—surfacing intelligence to enhance resilience, compliance, and competitive advantages.

Saudi wealth fund sold its stakes in Meta, Shopify and PayPal in Q2
BANGALORE/DUBAI: Saudi Arabia's almost $1 trillion sovereign wealth fund sold its stakes in several U.S.-listed companies - including Meta, Shopify and PayPal - in the second quarter, according to securities filings released on Thursday. The Public Investment Fund also sold its stakes in Alibaba Group, Nu Holdings and FedEx, the 13F filings show, during a quarter in which U.S. stock markets rebounded from an April drop tied to U.S. tariff policies. The filings showed that PIF no longer held any shares in Meta, Shopify, PayPal, Alibaba, Nu Holdings and FedEx. Its previous filing showed that, at the end of March, the fund had 667,996 class A shares in Meta, 1.25 million class A shares in Shopify, 1.76 million shares in PayPal, 6.83 million shares class A shares in Nu Holdings, 1.61 million in Alibaba sponsored ADS, and 498,164 common shares in FedEx. PIF's total exposure to U.S. equities, which include call options that give the state investor a right to buy an underlying asset at a specified price within a specific time period, was valued at $23.8 billion at the end of the second quarter, versus $25.5 billion at the end of the first quarter. Tasked with spearheading Saudi Arabia's economic diversification under Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's Vision 2030 plan, PIF has moved well beyond its early holdings in Saudi public equities and infrastructure. In recent years, the fund took high-profile stakes in global brands, such as Uber and Lucid Motors, while also backing sports ventures including LIV Golf and English soccer club Newcastle United. At home, it has poured billions into giga-projects such as NEOM, the futuristic city on the Red Sea, and sectors like tourism, logistics, and clean energy.
