Enrique G.
Last position:
Security Architect at Capgemini
I implemented a Zero-Trust architecture for robust, military-grade maritime container mini data centers based on VMware & Tanzu to support containerized GIS workloads for ground forces. The main focus was on securing communications, workload protection, and data access in contested electronic battle environments affected by jamming, interception, signal manipulation, and constantly changing operational conditions. I designed and architected use cases so that every element of workload, identity, and system could continue to operate independently and securely even in degraded or disrupted scenarios. In parallel, I defined the enterprise and solution security architecture with LeanIX, Bizzdesign, and HOPEX as enterprise architecture, repository, and governance platforms to maintain architecture inventory, relationships, traceability, target pictures, and security governance in complex environments. For the architectural designs, I used Sparx Enterprise Architect to describe formal architecture views, interfaces, trust boundaries, and system architecture in both IT and OT environments. IriusRisk was used for threat modeling of the solution to identify architecture-driven risks, derive security requirements, and detect countermeasures and design gaps directly from the solution models. Risk and compliance management was supported with Archer. Architecture decisions, control gaps, and operational risks were translated into controlled governance and auditable compliance measures. For documentation, collaboration, and visual design, I used Confluence to maintain Architecture Decision Records, Security Blueprints, and workflows. I used Lucidchart and draw.io to create design artifacts tailored to stakeholders. I also defined OT security concepts with support from electrical and mechanical engineers in the areas of oil, vehicle onboard systems, rail, power plants, pharma, gas turbines, and nuclear technology. I created the end-to-end OT security strategy, starting with global policy, developed into standards and procedures, and finally aligned with Bell-LaPadula, Purdue Model, SABSA, TOGAF ADM, CENELEC 50701, IEC 62443, and NIST standards. In addition, I worked with engineering team leads to identify critical KBP assets and place them under protective measures that segmented SCADA, PLC, and HMI assets. I drove collaboration between Security, IT, and OT teams to create standardized workflows and use cases for the OT security solution catalog, while integrating Defense-in-Depth and Zero-Trust principles into operational environments. A key part of my work was integrating multidisciplinary engineering, security, and operations stakeholders into a unified security blueprinting strategy and ensuring that architecture, threat modeling, governance, and documentation were technically strong and operationally practical.

About the technology
What Trend Micro covers
Trend Micro is a cybersecurity portfolio for protecting endpoints, servers, networks, email and cloud workloads. Its products support threat prevention, detection, investigation and response across distributed environments. Companies use the ecosystem to reduce attack surfaces and give security teams a unified view of suspicious activity.
Core products
The platform includes endpoint protection through Trend Vision One, cloud security capabilities, network defense and email security. Product names such as Apex One, Deep Security and Cloud One may still appear in existing environments, while Trend Vision One connects signals across security layers. Strong specialists understand how these components fit together rather than treating each console in isolation.
Common delivery work
- Deploy and tune endpoint policies for workstations and servers
- Connect Trend Vision One with identity, ticketing and SIEM systems
- Protect cloud workloads, containers and virtual machines
- Investigate alerts and improve detection and response workflows
- Review email, network and web protection controls
Projects often include migration from legacy Trend Micro products, policy redesign, operational handover and incident-response preparation. The right approach depends on the company’s infrastructure, risk profile and existing security processes.
Skills around the platform
Trend Micro work sits at the intersection of endpoint security, cloud security and security operations. Useful adjacent skills include Microsoft security tooling, Active Directory, Linux, AWS, Azure, network segmentation, SIEM integration and incident response. Specialists should also be comfortable with APIs, log analysis, policy testing and secure change management.
When companies hire specialists
- A security team needs temporary capacity during a rollout or migration
- Alert volume is high and policies require careful tuning
- Cloud workloads need consistent protection across accounts and regions
- An audit or incident exposes gaps in monitoring and response
Companies in Germany may need support across office, data-centre and cloud environments. Remote work is often practical for configuration and analysis, while access reviews, workshops or complex network changes can benefit from on-site collaboration and clear German or English communication.
What strong professionals deliver
A capable specialist begins with asset discovery, traffic patterns, identity flows and business priorities. They define policies that are effective without creating unnecessary disruption, document exceptions and test changes before broad deployment. They can explain alerts in business terms, preserve evidence during investigations and leave internal teams with maintainable procedures.
Quality also shows in disciplined access control, clear rollback plans and useful operational documentation. Professionals should distinguish product defaults from deliberate decisions, measure whether controls reduce risk and keep recommendations aligned with the wider security architecture.
Frequently asked questions
Not sure where to start with Trend Micro? These answers cover the essentials.
Trend Micro is used to protect endpoints, servers, networks, email systems and cloud workloads from malware, ransomware, exploitation and other threats. Its tools also support detection, investigation and response through a shared security view.
Trend Micro is often compared with Microsoft Defender and CrowdStrike for endpoint and detection capabilities. The right choice depends on the existing identity stack, cloud environment, preferred operating model, integration needs and the level of control required over policies and response.
A strong Trend Micro specialist should understand endpoint administration, network security, identity systems and security operations. Experience with SIEM tools, Active Directory, Linux, AWS or Azure, scripting, incident response and vulnerability management is valuable.
The required depth depends on the scope. Trend Micro policy tuning for a limited endpoint estate may need a focused specialist, while a migration, cloud rollout or incident-response redesign calls for someone who can handle architecture, integrations, testing and operational handover.
Much of Trend Micro configuration, alert analysis and documentation can be completed remotely through controlled access. On-site work may help with network changes, workshops, access reviews or environments that cannot be reached remotely, with German or English communication agreed in advance.
Trend Micro protects cloud workloads by combining workload security, vulnerability visibility, runtime controls and monitoring for supported environments. A specialist should map the design to cloud accounts, identities, images, containers and deployment processes rather than applying identical policies everywhere.
Ask for evidence of hands-on Trend Micro work that matches your environment, such as endpoint rollout, Vision One integration, cloud protection or incident response. Check how the specialist handles discovery, testing, documentation, access control and knowledge transfer.
A high-quality Trend Micro professional combines product knowledge with sound security judgment. They reduce false positives without weakening protection, explain risk clearly, document every important decision and connect platform controls to incident response and wider security processes.
