“Multiple point solutions are contributing to the lack of visibility and complexity of our customer’s IT environments, are increasing the risk of breach, and are also increasing costs at a time when they literally can’t afford to spend budget on ineffective or redundant technologies,” explained Steve Daheb, chief marketing officer at Tanium

“These different tools are often deployed in silos across different organizations, in groups spanning IT Operations, Security, and Compliance, making it far more difficult to effectively protect infrastructure and data assets.”

“We are honored to be recognized as a 2023 Microsoft US Partner of the Year and look forward to our work with Microsoft as we continue to break down silos with a converged platform that is displacing point solutions and delivering certainty through the power of Microsoft Azure.”

The Microsoft Partner of the Year Awards acknowledge partners from within the global Microsoft ecosystem with a variety of accolades designed to showcase solutions delivering customer success that are built on Microsoft cloud and platforms.

The Rising Azure Technology Partner of the Year Award is distinguished upon a technology partner (ISV) that has demonstrated strong customer focus and impact by building on Microsoft Azure as their primary cloud platform and scaling their solution by selling with Microsoft.

Tanium

Best Device Visibility and Control Solution

  • Tanium XEM

  • Companies spend $160BN annually on point solutions that don’t improve cybersecurity, and CIOs have millions of globally distributed assets to see and control but lack the visibility/ability to act in real-time.

It's time for a different approach Let’s focus on the basic protections the industry has known would work for decades, but most assumed were impossible to implement. Let’s use a single platform that can identify where all your data is, patch every device you own in seconds, implement critical security controls and do that all in a single pane of glass – in real time. Let’s close the holes that attackers get through, rather than paper them over with tools that let them in.
It’s time for a different approach.
Let’s use a single platform that can identify where all your data is, patch every device you own in seconds, implement critical security controls, and do that all in a single pane of glass – in real-time.
  • 94% of enterprises have 20% or more endpoints undiscovered, unprotected, and vulnerable to attack.

  • In contrast, the many tools sitting on endpoints adversely affect performance, and disparate point solutions make it difficult to collect, assess, and act on data across operations and security; additional solutions are often required to remediate vulnerabilities or respond to incidents—adding to IT complexity and cost.

  • Tanium solves this by delivering full visibility and control in real-time for every endpoint—across users, clouds, and IoT devices—enabling CISOs to see instantly whether hundreds of thousands of assets are installed, configured, patched, and used according to corporate policies, so they can mitigate risk and reduce complexity using a single platform spanning operations, risk, and security teams.

  • To defend against attack surface proliferation and protect critical information and infrastructure, Tanium XEM offers a convergence of real-time decision-making, management, and remediation across IT, Compliance, Security, and Risk using a single pane of glass for one shared source of truth, a unified set of controls, and a common taxonomy that brings together siloed teams from across an organization.

(See why Tanium, the industry’s only provider of converged endpoint management (XEM), is leading the shift in legacy approaches to managing complex security and technology environments. Courtesy of Tanium and YouTube.)

  • XEM utilizes a patented linear-chain architecture, providing real-time visibility and control at scale, and a fully extensible data model with the ability to customize Tanium in any environment and with any desired integration among existing tools. The lightweight, performant Tanium single agent spans the breadth and depth of all XEM platform capabilities.

  • Tanium can protect every team, endpoint, and workflow from cyber threats by integrating IT, Risk and Compliance, and Security into a single platform for comprehensive visibility across devices, a unified set of controls, and a common taxonomy for one shared purpose: protecting critical information and infrastructure at scale. Tanium complements anti-malware solutions with its visibility, management, and remediation capabilities – all in real-time.
