Trend Micro Reinvents Proactive Security with Digital Twin Technology
HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 6 August 2025 TSE: 4704 ), a global cybersecurity leader, today unveiled a groundbreaking new cyber resilience model that reinvents how enterprises approach proactive security. Trend's Digital Twin capabilities will empower enterprises to simulate real-world cyber threats, validate their defenses, and adapt policies in real time across complex and diverse digital environments."In today's rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape, organizations need proactive solutions that can anticipate and counter potential threats before they occur.

It allows organizations to stay ahead of adversaries, harden their environments to circumvent cybersecurity threats, and confidently secure mission-critical operations against an ever-changing threat landscape. The technology shifts security practices from static and reactive to dynamic and predictive, enabling measurable improvements across a range of critical use cases."Trend's digital twin approach completely changes our ability to understand risk in real-time. It helps us catch threats we didn't even know to look for, allowing our team to focus less on firefighting and more on confidently driving innovation."Trend's cybersecurity Digital Twin technology is powered by NVIDIA accelerated computing and NVIDIA AI Enterprise software, including NVIDIA NIM microservices. This enterprise-grade software enables the delivery of agentic AI models, optimized inference, and secure, scalable deployment—combining the simplicity of APIs with the flexibility of self-hosted infrastructure to strengthen cybersecurity outcomes with AI-driven precision.Trend's Digital Twin model will help organizations proactively manage risk across their entire infrastructure—from on-prem to cloud, IT to OT, and legacy to next gen AI-powered systems. It comes as governments and industry leaders accelerate AI infrastructure investments . Trend's approach to digital twins enables customers to make better informed risk decisions and enhance security operations across their organization.AI agents simulate threats and tactics within the Digital Twin, long before a real-world incident occurs. This helps to test current mitigation strategies in a continuous cycle, to improve resilience planning for sensitive and complex environments.Decision makers can introduce new tools, policies, or architectural changes to see how they perform in the virtual environment. This results in better informed, data-driven investment decisions.Digital Twin technology can be used to simulate business-critical failure scenarios to highlight how data flows, how decisions are made, and how disruptions ripple across IT/OT systems and teams. These real-time risk insights boost enterprise security planning capabilities without risking disruption to production systems."As threats migrate to OT, proactive security is critical. Trend Micro's Digital Twin technology introduces a new operational model for enterprise cyber security: simulation. Sometimes even probing a production network can result in downtime, often making it extremely difficult to expose vulnerabilities and confirm compensating measures. A continuous cycle of adversary simulation and defensive validation becomes a value tool to ensure that organizations stay ahead of cyber threats, while being sensitive to the fragility of some operational environments."The announcement is the latest in a line of innovation-led projects from Trend designed to help network defenders harness AI, close skill gaps, and improve security outcomes.Most recently, Trend announced it would open source its Trend Cybertron AI model and agent framework in a bid to accelerate the development of autonomous cybersecurity agents.Its work has also expanded to cover protection for GenAI workloads and advances to sovereign AI infrastructure."Enterprises are struggling to defend complex, dynamic infrastructure environments from highly adaptive, AI-powered adversaries. Rapid shifts in threat actor tactics and IT infrastructure mean reactive, point-in-time risk assessments are no longer fit for purpose. Our Digital Twin technology empowers customers to simulate threats and safely validate security controls without touching production systems—to finally close the gap between digital transformation and defensive readiness."Hashtag: #trendmicro #trendvisionone #visionone #cybersecurity#digitaltwin

China frees star banker Bao Fan after two-year detention, according to Chinese media
BEIJING, Aug 8 — Bao Fan, founder of investment bank China Renaissance Holdings, has been released more than two years after being taken away by authorities, Chinese media Caixin reported on Friday, citing unidentified sources. Bao, a star dealmaker who went missing in February 2023, 'has come out', multiple sources told Caixin. Bao, who previously worked at Credit Suisse and Morgan Stanley, was widely regarded as one of China's best-connected bankers, having been involved in the mergers of several tech firms such as ride-hailing firms Didi and Kuaidi. China Renaissance didn't immediately respond to Reuters request for comment. China Renaissance sent shockwaves through the country's financial sector in 2023 when it announced it was unable to contact Bao, who founded the bank in 2005 with two other men and still owns nearly 49 per cent of the company's issued shares. Shares of Hong Kong-listed China Renaissance plunged as much as 72 per cent on the day it resumed trading in September last year, after a more than one-year suspension. Xie Yi Jing, who co-founded China Renaissance, replaced Bao as chairman in February last year. Subsequently, Bao's wife Hui Yin Ching was appointed as chairperson to lead the boutique investment bank in October, with changes in other senior management ranks as well. Bao's prolonged detention rattled professionals in China's financial industry as Beijing dialled up its campaign to rein in the 'lavish lifestyle' of the 'financial elite'. His release comes as Beijing recently stepped up efforts to boost business confidence, particularly among the country's tech entrepreneurs, whose businesses suffered from a years-long crackdown. China Renaissances shares jumped 17 per cent on Friday to close at HK$6.87 (RM3.71). Sources have previously told Reuters that he was taken away to assist in an investigation into a former colleague. A Chinese financial publication reported in May 2023 he was detained by disciplinary and supervision officials. Authorities have as yet not given any explanation. — Reuters

Ringgit slips against US dollar on profit-taking, Fed policy uncertainty
KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 8 — The ringgit continued its retreat against the US dollar on profit-taking after recent gains to close lower on Friday. At 6pm, the local note eased to 4.2420/2480 against the greenback from Thursday's close of 4.2340/2385. Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd chief economist Dr Mohd Afzanizam Abdul Rashid said mixed signals from the US Federal Reserve (Fed) have also affected market sentiment, amid growing expectations for an interest rate cut. He noted that Fed officials remained divided on the timing and necessity for such a move. 'Some believe inflation could remain persistent, justifying the need to maintain a restrictive monetary policy. Others, however, feel that a rate cut should happen sooner to stabilise growth momentum,' he told Bernama. Mohd Afzanizam also pointed out that the upcoming release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for July, scheduled for next Tuesday, is likely to intensify the debate among Fed members over the direction of interest rates. 'The consensus estimates have pegged the inflation rate at 2.8 per cent, which is higher than 2.7 per cent in the prior month. As such, we will continue to see debate among Fed members on the direction of interest rates,' he said. At the close, the ringgit ended mostly higher against major currencies. It edged up against the yen to 2.8720/8763 from 2.8732/8765 at the close on Thursday, and improved against the euro to 4.9381/9451 from 4.9411/9463. However, it dropped versus the British pound to 5.7034/7114 from 5.6596/6656. The ringgit trended lower against regional peers. It dropped against the Singapore dollar to 3.3014/3064 from 3.2973/3013, declined against the Thai baht to 13.1173/1419 from 13.0954/1146, and was lower against the Indonesian rupiah at 260.3/260.8 from 259.9/260.3 previously. It slipped against the Philippine peso to 7.43/7.44 from 7.42/7.44. — Bernama

Teo: Utilise AI, youth to promote Malaysian culture
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia must leverage artificial intelligence, as well as the energy and skills of its younger generation, to promote the nation's culture and heritage on the global stage. Deputy Communications Minister Teo Nie Ching said Malaysia's cultural diversity, heritage and natural environment are the nation's key strengths in capturing global attention. "The ministry has always encouraged the media such as RTM, Bernama and the Information Department to produce quality-assured content by using the latest technology such as AI. "AI helps us produce content faster and more efficiently, but precaution must be taken to ensure it is being used for good, not harm," she said when appearing as a guest at Media Prima Audio today. When asked if youths are still interested in heritage and the nation, she said she believes that most of them remain keen to explore Malaysia's unique features. She said, in line with current technological advancements, youths are seen as being able to help promote the nation's culture and heritage through digital platforms. "Most foreigners are amazed by Malaysian's uniqueness for speaking fluently in multiple languages, which in turn reflects the harmony of a multiracial nation," she added. Teo said she also extends greetings in various languages when delivering speeches at official events abroad as a symbol of Malaysia's identity. "Every time I travel abroad, they are very impressed to see Malaysians who are able to speak multiple languages. "This reflects the beauty and strength of our country that comes from its diverse backgrounds. "I will start my speech with 'Salam sejahtera Malaysia, selamat pagi' and so on. This is a simple yet unique approach to reflect the beauty of Malaysia," she said. Commenting on her experience traveling across the country, she admitted that there are still many places yet to be explored, but she is still deeply impressed by the diverse natural beauty and local culture. "Malaysia not only owns breathtaking natural landscapes, but the rapid city development like Kuala Lumpur also serves as a major attraction for tourists. "We have skyscrapers, modern lifestyle in the city, but at the same time we can also witness the indigenous culture in Sabah and Sarawak which remain preserved," she said. In conjunction with the upcoming Merdeka month and Malaysia Day celebrations, she invites all Malaysians, especially social media users, to share positive stories and experiences about the country. "We know that negative content spreads more easily, but I feel that for the next month or month and a half, let us share beautiful stories about Malaysia. "This is to ensure the spirit of unity and patriotism can be nurtured among Malaysians, as well as to show our love for Malaysia," she added.
