TrendAI and Anthropic partner to make AI safer
Wallisellen/Tokyo/San Francisco - TrendAI is integrating Anthropic’s artificial intelligence (AI) system, Claude, across its entire cybersecurity platform. The two companies are also working together to identify security vulnerabilities in AI systems.
(CONNECT) TrendAI has entered into a strategic partnership with Anthropic from San Francisco in California, according to a statement from the company. TrendAI is, as of late March, the rebranded enterprise business of Trend Micro, a global Japanese cybersecurity solutions provider led by CEO Eva Chen, with a Swiss branch in Wallisellen in the canton of Zurich. Anthropic was founded by former employees of OpenAI, which created ChatGPT: siblings Danila (President) and Dario Amodei (CEO). The company has developed the AI model series Claude.
Under the partnership, TrendAI will integrate the Claude family’s large language models across its entire cybersecurity platform to enable agent-based workflows, automation, and AI-native security operations. The two companies also plan to collaborate on targeted threat research to identify vulnerabilities in AI systems and infrastructure.
“For 35 years, TrendAI has been at the forefront of cybersecurity,” Ash Alhashim, Head of Cybersecurity GTM at Anthropic, is quoted as saying. “By using Claude to power TrendAI Vision One and initiatives like TrendAI Zero Day Initiative and Pwn2Own, TrendAI is advancing the next iteration of vulnerability discovery and reporting – and tilting the scales toward defenders.”
Rachel Jin is Chief Platform and Business Officer at Trend Micro and head of TrendAI. Jin explains that TrendAI was launched to “define the AI security category. This next phase is about scaling that vision globally, with leading partners like Anthropic. Our broad, strategic collaboration across research, defense, and innovation will define how AI is secured moving forward.”
To promote diversity in cybersecurity, Trend Micro is actively expanding its Swiss team with female professionals. As it announced in January 2026, Anna Bliznina has joined the channel management team as Partner Development Manager. The company is also committed to increasing the proportion of women in the security industry through initiatives such as Women in Cyber Day Switzerland. ce/mm
