On August 4, 2021, Trend Cloud One launched a new sign-in and accounts system. The
new system separates the creation of users from accounts, allowing a single user to
be a member of multiple Trend Cloud One accounts. This allows you to more easily create
and manage multiple Trend Cloud One accounts for use across your organization, teams,
and global regions.
Customers with new Trend Cloud One accounts can more easily manage users and API keys
through the Trend Cloud One platform, instead of managing those features from the
Workload Security console.
Any customers signing up for Trend Cloud One on or after August 4, 2021 use a new
Trend Cloud One account. Customers who created their accounts prior to the release
will continue to use the legacy account and sign-in, and will be transitioned at a
later date.
For more information, see the frequently asked questions.
How do I know which sign-in method to use?
Trend Cloud One detects which sign-in method you used previously and provides you
the correct sign-in page. Both sign-ins are accessible from the Trend Cloud One sign in page. If you are unsure, or if we are unable to detect which sign-in method you used previously,
there are a few ways to know which sign-in method to use:
-
Which fields did you use to sign in previously?
- Customers with the new method enter an email, password, and optional MFA token.
- Customers with the legacy method enter an account, username, password, and optional MFA token.
-
Check the Trend Cloud One banner at the top of the sign-in page:
-
Customers with the legacy method see this version of the Trend Cloud One banner after signing in, and should use the sign in page with the same banner:{.zoom}If you previously signed in to Deep Security as a Service via app.deepsecurity.trendmicro.com, you must also use this sign-in page.

Customers with the new method see a new version of the Trend Cloud One banner after signing in, and should use the sign in page with the same banner:{.zoom}
Trend Cloud One currently offers a SAML sign-in option, but only to accounts created or upgraded to the new method.
What is the difference between a new account and a legacy account?
With legacy accounts, a user belongs only to the account where it was
created. When signing in with a set of credentials, you must specify the account
you
belong to because your user ID only exists in that one account. You can create
another identical user in a different account, but they are treated as two
independent users belonging to two independent accounts. Because users belong
to a
single account, this means users also only exist in a single region.
In the new accounts, a user is not tied to a single account. A user can
be granted access to an account by invitation, but the user still exists outside
of
the account if the account is deleted or if the user's access to it is revoked.
When
signing in, you are not authenticating into a Trend Cloud One account; you
authenticate as a user. Your user may have been granted access to multiple Trend
Cloud One accounts and once you've signed in, you can freely access those accounts.
A user's unique identifier is its email address, and a given email address can
only
have a single user globally, across all Trend Cloud One regions and all Trend
Cloud
One accounts.
What is the difference between a user and an account in the new system?
An account is a container for your Trend Cloud One services. Within each Trend Cloud One account,
you can create and manage the resources, deployment, configuration, and security policy
for the Trend Cloud One services. Each Trend Cloud One account is locked to a single
region, and is managed separately in terms of account administration, billing, and
licensing. This ensures that security data stays in the region for the Trend Cloud
One security and protection resources deployed. However, you can still deploy and
manage resources globally from any account.
A user is a unique identity that can be granted access to a Trend Cloud One account. Each
user authenticates with a set of unique credentials. Once authenticated, a user can
see and make changes to one or more Trend Cloud One accounts and their resources,
based on the role assigned to the user.
Can I use the new sign-in with legacy credentials, or vice-versa?
No. The credentials are specific for each sign-in system.

Managing users (UI)
|
Users are managed from the Workload Security console, and a given user exists only
in a single account.
User authentication requirements:
|
Users are managed from the Account Management pages in the Trend Cloud One console.
A user can be invited to join an account by another user with sufficient privileges.
An account administrator can invite or remove users from the account but cannot delete
another user or modify properties other than their role.
Each individual user creates and manages their own user properties and credentials.
As a user, this means you only need to authenticate once with a single set of credentials
to access all the Trend Cloud One accounts you've joined, rather than needing a separate
login for each individual account.
User authentication requirements:
|
||
Managing users (API)
|
Users can be managed programmatically from the Workload Security Administrators APIs.
|
Users must be managed using the Trend Cloud One Accounts APIs and Invitations APIs.
|
||
Managing roles (UI)
|
Roles are managed and assigned to users from the Workload Security console. The structure
and permissions of these roles across the other Trend Cloud One services is described
in Define roles for users.
|
Roles are managed from the Account Management pages in the Trend Cloud One console.
Roles are assigned when inviting a user to an account or creating an API key, and
can be modified later by an administrator with sufficient privileges. A role contains
a set of permissions for each of the Trend Cloud One services, as well as different
administrative functions for the account.
|
||
Managing roles (API)
|
Roles can be managed programmatically from the Workload Security Administrator Roles APIs
|
Roles must be managed using the Trend Cloud One Roles APIs
|
||
Managing API keys (UI)
|
API keys are created and managed from the individual Trend Cloud One security service
consoles, and only grant permissions for that service.
API keys can be expired and locked out. In new accounts, API keys cannot be expired,
but can be enabled or disabled by an administrator with sufficient privileges.
|
API keys are managed from the Account Management pages in the Trend Cloud One console.
When you create an API key, it is assigned a role and a single API key can be used
to manage all of the Trend Cloud One services as well as the account's administrative
functions.
Unlike users, API keys are locked to a single account and cannot be granted access
to multiple Trend Cloud One accounts.
|
||
Managing API keys (API)
|
API keys can be managed programmatically from the Workload Security API Keys APIs
|
API keys must be managed using the Trend Cloud One API Keys APIs.

Managing accounts (UI)
|
Accounts were previously created at https://cloudone.trendmicro.com/trial. Legacy accounts can no longer be created, and all new sign-ups will be for new users
and accounts.
Legacy accounts have 2 unique account identifiers:
|
Account properties are managed from the Account Management pages in the Trend Cloud
One console.
A Trend Cloud One user can create a new account in Trend Cloud One using the Create New Account button in the console header. Each user can create a maximum of 2 Trend Cloud One
accounts. If you require more accounts, contact Trend support.
Accounts have a single unique account identifier, which is a globally unique 12-digit
Account ID visible from any of the Account Management pages and in the console header. When creating an account, the creator must also
provide an Account Alias, which is a friendly name for the account. The alias does not need to be unique and
can be changed at any time.

System events (user authentication)
|
The following events are logged in the Workload Security system events for authentication
and session creation across Trend Cloud One.
|
In Workload Security, events 600 (User Signed In), 601 (User Signed Out), and 652
(User Updated) will no longer appear. The other system events will continue to be
logged in Workload Security for actions and sessions made to Workload Security. When
viewing the events in the Workload Security console for users and API Keys, these
will now reference the URN for the user (visible from the User Management page in Trend Cloud One) and the ID for the API Keys (visible from the API Keys page in Cloud One).
Logging for all other actions related to user, role, and API Key management in Trend
Cloud One are logged in the Audit Log page in Trend Cloud One. Event forwarding is currently not supported for the audit
log.

If I have legacy account, what happens to my account? How do I use or access the new account features?
For existing customers with a legacy account, there are no changes or impacts to your
account resulting from the release of the new Trend Cloud One accounts and their features.
However, you will no longer have the option of creating legacy accounts, and all new
Trend Cloud One accounts created will be a new account.
Existing accounts will be transitioned to new accounts at a future date. Currently,
the only way to access the new accounts and their features is to create a brand new
account at https://cloudone.trendmicro.com/trial.
What does region mean for an account?
When you create a new Trend Cloud One account, you must select the region where the
data for your account will be hosted. All your security data stays in the region
where your account was created, and the region of an account cannot be changed
later.
While accounts are restricted to a single region, you can still manage assets
globally from an account in any region. All Trend Cloud One regions can be used
and
accessed globally by any customer, and can be used to protect assets globally.
All legacy accounts exist in the US-1 region, located in the United States, and
existing accounts cannot be moved to another region; however, you can still manage
assets globally from your account.
For a list of currently available Trend Cloud One regions and the services available
in each regions, see Trend Cloud One
regions.
