At their 10th annual Converge conference in Orlando, Tanium, which bills itself as a leader in Autonomous IT, announced major advancements designed to accelerate the journey toward autonomous operations and security. These advancements empower IT and security leaders to innovate faster, strengthen resilience and drive business outcomes with confidence.
Tanium CEO Dan Streetman opened keynotes at Converge with a clear message: organizations need the clarity, confidence, and real-time visibility to move faster than the threats and disruptions they face.
“Being unstoppable means more than just preventing outages or breaches – being unstoppable means accelerating the speed at which we adapt and innovate,” Streetman said.
“Tanium continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible by leveraging AI and real-time endpoint intelligence to empower organizations to move from reactive to autonomous operations,” said Matt Quinn, chief technology officer at Tanium. “Unveiling these innovations at our Converge conference is especially meaningful – it’s where our community comes together to shape the future of autonomous IT. Leveraging our unique linear chain architecture, these advancements deliver end-to-end outcomes at speed and scale – all through a single, unified platform.”
Tanium’s priority has been enabling organizations to manage endpoints autonomously while evolving the Tanium platform to build confidence across IT and security environments. As organizations face challenges such as scaling productivity, reducing operational complexity and ensuring safety and security, Tanium is leveraging AI to transform IT operations and security. This evolution enables full-scale autonomous IT. To accomplish this, Tanium showcased a series of key advancements at this year’s Converge conference, further reinforcing its focus on redefining enterprise IT and security operations.
“Unveiling these innovations at our Converge conference is especially meaningful,” Quinn added. “It’s where our community comes together to shape the future of Autonomous IT. Leveraging our unique linear chain architecture, these advancements deliver end-to-end outcomes at speed and scale – all through a single unified platform.”
Two elements involve the expansion of Agentic AI.
- Tanium Ask: Tanium’s first agentic AI experience introduces a new paradigm in operational efficiency by integrating AI-driven workflows directly into the Tanium platform. From data discovery and software management to dashboard summarization and embedded documentation, Tanium Ask enables administrators to investigate, troubleshoot and remediate issues in a single streamlined experience. Tanium Ask also extends to security operations use cases whereby it enriches security data to automate alert investigation and triage through precise, actionable recommendations.
- Tanium AI Agent for ServiceNow: The Tanium AI agent is embedded directly into ServiceNow’s Now Assist experience and agentic framework. When an incident is opened, the Tanium AI Agent automatically pulls real-time endpoint intelligence, such as user activity, application versions and device status into the workflow. From a single chat interface, administrators can get accurate answers and perform recommended actions, such as rebooting a device or uninstalling software, eliminating the need for time-consuming investigations.
Three new endpoint management capabilities were announced.
- Tanium Endpoint Management for Operational Technology (OT): Expanding the reach of Tanium’s endpoint management capabilities into OT environments brings real-time visibility and actionable insight to traditionally siloed assets. By integrating OT devices such as human-machine interfaces and programmable logic controllers, Tanium enables unified oversight across IT and industrial domains. This visibility bridges the gap between operational resilience and security, ensuring critical infrastructure benefits from the same agility and intelligence that drives modern IT operations.
- Tanium Endpoint Management for Mobile: Starting with Macs, iPhones and iPads, incorporating mobile endpoints into Tanium’s platform enables consistent visibility, configuration enforcement and remote actions. As organizations adapt to hybrid work and device diversity, the expansion across mobile endpoints strengthens enterprise agility and operational confidence.
- Tanium Connector for Microsoft Intune: Provides organizations with unified visibility, reporting and responsive actions across mobile and IT devices by integrating device telemetry from Microsoft Intune-managed endpoints into the Tanium platform. This integration addresses the fragmentation of endpoint management, delivering comprehensive visibility and effective remediation across the entire device landscape.
Finally, two expanded security operations from Tanium were also announced.
- Tanium Jump Gate: Built on Tanium’s existing client architecture, Tanium Jump Gate helps organizations eliminate standing access, enforce Zero Trust principles and provide real-time oversight with just-in-time and just-enough access to sensitive resources.
- Tanium HuntIQ: Embedding seasoned, hands-on-keyboard Tanium experts directly into customer environments helps to optimize security operations performance, strengthen resilience and proactively detect stealthy threats to close visibility gaps and accelerate security operations maturity.
Tanium continues to rapidly advance its platform to meet the demands for autonomous IT with increasingly complex enterprise environments. By delivering intelligent, proactive automation and unifying management and security across IT, OT and mobile, Tanium eliminates visibility blind spots and enables decision-making – at speed and scale – so organizations can be truly unstoppable.
In other news from Converge, Tanium announced that it is partnering with ServiceNow to deliver new innovations that advance Autonomous IT across enterprises. By integrating Tanium with the ServiceNow AI Platform, the combined capabilities drive greater efficiency, visibility and resilience across enterprise IT infrastructure. ServiceNow also uses Tanium to enhance its own autonomous IT operations and strengthen security across its IT environment.
“By partnering with ServiceNow and deploying our combined capabilities across both platforms, we are able to deliver truly Autonomous IT – enabling real-time visibility, control and resilience at scale,” said Shawn Gallagher, vice president, strategic partnerships at Tanium. “Together, we’re empowering the autonomous enterprise by simplifying operations, strengthening security posture and accelerating outcomes.”
This partnership allows both Tanium and ServiceNow to more effectively serve their customers. Shared use cases focus on enabling agentic workflow capabilities, leveraging Tanium real-time endpoint intelligence and ServiceNow AIOps to automatically triage observable alerts and achieve scalable self-healing. Additional benefits include zero-touch patching, which ensures deployment configurations remain compliant and support audits in real-time for unauthorized software, among other advantages.
“ServiceNow delivers trusted, seamless experiences for our customers. Through our AI platform and the integration of Tanium’s real-time endpoint intelligence, we’re strengthening IT and security operations, accelerating response times and advancing toward autonomous IT,” said Sankha Nagchoudhury, senior vice president, digital technology intelligent operations at ServiceNow. “This collaboration enhances our foundation of resilience and elevates the experience for the people who rely on our services every day.”
With a complex IT environment—spanning on-premises infrastructure and multiple cloud platforms—ServiceNow has also deployed Tanium to enhance real-time visibility and control across its Autonomous IT environment. Tanium optimizes the effectiveness of ServiceNow Security Operations by supplying accurate endpoint data directly to the configuration management database (CMDB) and streamlining essential workflows.
ServiceNow also won out as Tanium Technology Alliance Partner of the Year
