Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In my organization, Tanium is used to manage the servers as well as manage the endpoint security. Servers are an essential part of any applications present in today's world. All the data and information are kept in servers. Due to a large number of data, it is difficult to manage it, here Tanium makes our work easier. Besides, endpoints are also an integral part that may be exposed to risk if not properly managed.

Pros

Endpoint Security Risk Management.
Server Management.
System Management.

Cons

Pricing is a bit expensive.
User dashboard can be made more informative.
Free trial can be further increased to 15 days or 1 month instead of just 5 days.

Likelihood to Recommend

Tanium is well suited for organizations where enterprise infrastructure has great significance and needs to be properly managed as well as protected. Most organizations depend upon their infrastructure to sustain so Tanium can be a boon for them to sustain in this competitive market. However, Tanium is less appropriate for the traditional offices that don't have or have a less online presence.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Tanium is used by the data security and networks team in our organization. It plays a key role in identifying our infected machines and the list of malicious applications in our machines. It helps us adding IOC's in the console which helps in identifying the hashes or shah files associated to that IOC's machines. It really helps to solve many business problems. You can it for asset management and also to create the list of infected machines with any vulnerabilities, which is great help to many organizations in protecting their network.

Pros

Tanium helps in identifying a list of infected machines with any vulnerabilities. For example if we create a package with list of Windows vulnerabilities, it will push the package through its sensors to all the nodes, and trace out the infected machines in our organization.
It helps in adding IOC's which helps us in track down the hashes or shah files existing with that IOC 's machines.
The most impressive thing about Tanium is that it can quarantine the machine of our choice without connecting to the network, which really helps a lot of times in containment of any infected machines.

Cons

One issue is its ring topology, as the data is stored in central hubs and pushed through its peer nodes. If the central hub fails, then the associated node will also result in failure.
Another problem is that all Tanium management is on premises requiring the customer to maintain it. If we want ask any help from Tanium support we always get a response like "you are maintaining it yourselves and it's your responsibility.
The Tanium User Interface could be improved a bit as, although the tool is rich in performance, a more impressive UI might really attract new customers.

Likelihood to Recommend

Tanium is suitable in any sort of organization where you want to look at your machines and what kind of applications they are running. One good example is removing an application from where it is not supposed to be in the organization. By using Tanium trace with basic English, first you can search all the machines which have that application, and second you can create a package either through a power shell command or CLI command and remove that application from all the machines at once.This is really saves lot of manual work, time, and also helps in balancing assets across an organization.
