Operating System Patching...Scary, Right? It Shouldn’t Be.
It has been around since the day of the first operating system, and it will always be a task that everyone needs to pay attention to: Patching. No software developer can afford to hunt down and fix every bug in their software before release because of the age-old constraints of time, resources and competitive advantage with being first to market.
Don’t Let Typical Security Events Slow You Down: A PuTTY Example
If you work with Windows and Unix/Linux platforms, no doubt you are familiar with PuTTY, one of the more ubiquitous tools found on many administrator and developer workstations. Microsoft Windows lacked an SSH client until fairly recently, and previously, if you wanted to connect to any Unix system from a Windows machine, you would need an SSH client.
Tanium Honored With Morgan Stanley CTO Innovation Award
Last week, Tanium was excited to receive Morgan Stanley’s 19th TechWeek and CTO Innovation Summit award, recognizing us as an exceptional technology partner to the bank.

Take the Fear Out of Change: What Windows 10 Migration Questions Must You Answer?
General support and updates for Windows 7 will end as of January 14, 2020, which means security updates end after this date, as well, opening your organisation up to potential vulnerabilities. This represents a great opportunity to simplify your workstation estate, rid your organisation of some of the technical debt accrued over the years and use the improved native security stack made available by Microsoft in Windows 10, including such features as antivirus, host-based IPS, data-loss prevention, code-signing and OS/Hardware security integration.
New to Tanium Protect: Windows and macOS Encryption Management at Scale
Encryption of data at rest is essential for securing portable endpoints (e.g. laptops) in the event they are lost, stolen or inappropriately decommissioned. It isn’t optional; it’s a fundamental security control, and most compliance regulations today, such as HIPAA and PCI, require the use of encryption to protect sensitive data.
Limited Visibility Keeps Us From Assessing Our True Risk
What metrics do CISOs need? It’s a question I hear daily when I meet with CISOs and CIOs from some of the world’s best-known organisations across finance, retail, aerospace, media, telecom, consulting and many other industries.
Architect, Tomorrow

Why Do 81% Of CIOs and CISOs Hold Back on Important Security Updates?
Tackling the challenge of Business Resilience. A resilient organization can depend on its people, processes and technology to quickly adapt to cyberattacks, outages and other forms of disruption.
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.

Introducing Tanium User Research
We are excited to announce the launch of Tanium User Research, a new research program that gives our User Experience team the opportunity to learn directly from the people who secure, control and manage IT assets. Great products are useful and usable, not just one or the other, and first-hand research is necessary for designing solutions that accomplish both goals.
