Agenda Overview
Data Hero | ||
---|---|---|
Each group in our organization is managing a separate sets of data on the same endpoints. Finding the go to people to gather subsets of data greatly slows the speed of being able to respond to data requests and find problems. Due to the effort involved in finding data from different sources, the age of the data caused inaccuracies in the results. | Kevin Laudan - Aegon | |
Digital Employee Experience: What's New and What's Next | ||
In May we shipped the first edition of Tanium Digital Employee Experience (DEX) and 6 months later the product is already gaining traction in the marketplace. In this session we will quickly recap all of the functionality that shipped in v1.0 and then we will focus the majority of our time on what we’ve learned so far and how we’re translating those learnings into an exciting roadmap. | Maayan Sela - Tanium Jason Stough - Tanium | |
Driving The Ferrari: Risk Reduction Through Collaborative Brilliance; A Partnership Success Story | ||
Within a month of using Tanium we discovered an additional 6k endpoints, started managing them, and started monthly patching for all workstations. Being able to clearly present accurate, real-time metrics and KPIs to show progress for Vulnerability Management to a non-technical C-suite was a challenge. I asked Kevin if he could find a way to pull the raw data from the Tanium platform, so we had accurate data rather than the summarized data that the platform usually provides. He reached out to Chaitanya and they were able to create a way to forward the raw data to a database that we could then pull from with PowerBI to present for our executive metrics reporting. By utilizing Tanium, we have been able to remediate over 400k critical and high vulnerabilities in our environment in just a few short months. | John Barrow - JB Poindexter & Co Chaitanya Belwal - Tanium Kevin Kilgo - Fulcrum Technology Solutions, LLC. | |
Endpoint Management: What's New and What's Next | ||
This session will cover updates to the Tanium Endpoint Management portfolio including new and enhanced capabilities for endpoint provisioning, configuration, patching, and software deployment along with what is on the roadmap for the coming year. | Ken Smiley - Tanium Greg Thomas - Tanium | |
FIM and Machine Learning: Greater Insights and Reduced Alert Fatigue | ||
File Integrity Monitoring is known for being noisy. With a large deployment and over a million daily events we found ourselves with a haystack where finding needles was nearly impossible. Follow along our journey to reduce the size of the haystack via various techniques and how we implemented a Machine Learning model to find the needles and other benefits it provides. | Jessica Daily - Wells Fargo Steven Edelman - Wells Fargo | |

How ICE Defenders Defeated CISA Red Team with Tanium | ||
Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) owns global systemically critical infrastructure, and as such we are able to partner with the US Government to test/ improve our overall security posture. In 2022 we conducted an engagement with the CISA Red Team, who conduct operations emulating a mid-sized nation-state threat actor. My presentation is a review of how ICE Incident Responders identified, contained, and eradicated their attackers in less than two days using Tanium Threat Response. | Liz Morton - Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. | |
How Tanium helps you make more out the humans you have | ||
When you need information and don't have enough humans to find and log into a bunch of machines. What do you do? Automation is the answer and in this presentation, we will show you some of our custom solutions along with how the Speed & Scale of Tanium delivered results for our entire environment. These are just a few examples of how to lessen the use of the “Sneaker” net (humans wearing sneakers (Shoes) and walking to every machine) to gather information. After all our Humans are busy and if we can gather the information fast, quick and current then they can move onto bigger and better things. | Chris Windham - Integer | |
How to solve a problem like expiring certificates | ||
At Frasers Group we have a history of major crises related to certificate expiries and generally poor management of certificates once deployed. We previously had no good solution in place to monitor certificates other than some crude CA exports. After a lengthy period of expensive downtime caused by certificate expiry, an internal “taskforce” was put together to determine the best way forward. In this talk, you'll learn why we chose Tanium Certificate Management as our solution and what we look forward to doing in the future. | Ashley Brammah - Frasers Group | |
Incident Response: What's New and What's Next | ||
In 2023 we've work hard to expand the capabilities of Tanium Incident Response with a focus on adding new functionality so that we can better augment the incident response capabilities from the world’s leading SIEM, XDR and EDR solution. In this session we will quickly recap all of improvements that we have delivered in 2023 and then we’ll discuss what we’ve learned and translated into an exciting roadmap. | Stephanie Aceves - Tanium | |

#Trending: Doing More with Less to Elevate Your Cybersecurity Posture | ||
With constantly evolving business, technical, and regulatory requirements organizations must evolve as well by prioritizing differently and delivering solutions that meet their business challenges. Many organizations find themselves with 30+ separate cybersecurity tools and technologies deployed due to the rapid decentralization of the workplace. Ultimately, this has led to poor internal governance, disjointed security solutions, and directly impacted the effectiveness of security programs. To combat this requires consolidating into the appropriate cybersecurity tools and technologies and taking a modern approach that embrace production, innovation, automation, and satisfaction. During this session we will explore the modern workplace, technologies, and how to do more with less when it comes to building a modern cybersecurity solution. | Kellie Roach - Optiv | |
Using Tanium Deploy to Expediate Software Installations | ||
Background: Before rolling out Tanium to our Manufacturing sites, each site used a very manual process to install patches, software, updates, etc. It was not a uniform process either, some sites used SCCM, manual updates, or didn't update at all just because it was so difficult. | Shrasta Koirala - Cummins Inc. Samantha Trissler - Cummins Inc. | |
WSSU's Cybersecurity Revolution: Tanium's Comprehensive Endpoint Solution | ||
In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity with higher education, our journey began with a complex blend of tools to manage patching, network discovery, and security posture.
