Trellix (FireEye) Endpoint Security (HX)

What is FireEye Endpoint Security (HX)?

FireEye Endpoint Security is a unified endpoint security platform for preventative protection, post-breach detection, automated investigation, and response. Its controller functionality that Vectra makes API calls to for integration, can exist as part of a cloud service, a physical appliance, or a virtual machine running in the customer environment. The integration with Vectra works the same regardless of deployment type. Only the URL for the API integration changes based on your implementation.
