Announcing Remote Scanning for Tanium Comply: Identify Vulnerabilities On Any Connected Device
As 2018 comes to a close we are excited to announce the next major release of Tanium Comply, our security compliance and vulnerability management module. For the past two years Comply has enabled our customers to secure their Tanium managed endpoints with scalable and rapid visibility into misconfigurations and vulnerabilities.
Here’s What’s New In Tanium Core Platform 7.4
IT teams today struggle to gain end-to-end visibility and control of their endpoints, leaving themselves open to cyberattack and other forms of disruption. An overreliance on point products often only exacerbates the problem; the modern IT team requires a single, unified endpoint management and security platform with the breadth to manage and secure endpoints—on-premises or in the cloud.
Tanium Use Case: Prevent Execution of Unwanted Applications
Application control, through whitelisting or blacklisting, reduces endpoint attack surface and is important to a well-rounded security strategy. Tanium Protect empowers organizations to restrict application execution with lightweight, natively available security controls and provides near-real-time visibility of attempted violations.
Tanium Use Case: Threat Alerting & Analysis and SIEM Integration
Heartbleed, Shellshock and, more recently, Intel AMT and Spectre/Meltdown are all examples of high-profile vulnerabilities affecting computing devices and network protocols at a level that makes them quite dangerous.

Windows 10 Upgrades and Servicing Made Easy With Tanium
General support and updates for Windows 7 will end as of January 14, 2020. Like any major OS transition, this is not a small undertaking for most organizations, and typically requires months if not a year or more of planning, testing, and training, plus the time to actually perform the migration.
Take Control of Your SSL/TLS Servers to Avoid Security Breaches and Public Outages

Teaming Up With Accenture, Palo Alto Networks, and Splunk on a New Cyber Defense Platform
Today we’re thrilled to announce that Tanium is teaming up with Accenture, Splunk and Palo Alto Networks to power the Accenture Cyber Defense Platform (ACDP), a new breach protection platform that empowers companies to efficiently command their entire cybersecurity lifecycle with one integrated solution. The platform integrates the capabilities of Splunk, Palo Alto Networks and Tanium to improve security and visibility on every endpoint — no matter the size of the network — giving security teams the ability to identify, prevent, protect, detect and respond to attacks within seconds.
Integrating Tanium and SCCM: Client Health
In my role at Tanium, I’m frequently confronted with complex IT environments. Every client situation is truly unique; however, one of the amazing things about Tanium is how well it adapts and actually thrives in chaotic enterprise networks.
Back to the Basics: Detecting Malicious Windows Services With Tanium
An essential part of “knowing your network” is tracking endpoint persistence mechanisms – the myriad of ways in which an operating system can automatically load and execute code. For over a decade, background services have been one of the most commonly utilized persistence locations in Windows.
