File Security now offers file-scanning using virtual appliances through the Trend
Vision One Service Gateway. The File Security Virtual Appliance acts a local scanner
on your on-premises servers or your AWS EC2 instances behind your firewall. Your files
never leave your system; only metadata is returned to Trend Micro.
Virtual appliances can have multiple servers, and servers can have multiple mount
points. You enable scanning on the mount points. When you enable scanning for a mount
point, it scans all of the files in the seletcted folder. It continues to monitor
the folder and scans any files that are added to, or modified in, the folder.
The following architecture diagram illustrates the main File Security Virtual Appliance
information flow.

You can add the Virtual Appliance from either the Trend Vision One Service Gateway
app or Trend
Vision One File Security.
