Securing budget for an enterprise security platform is rarely a single team decision, especially inside a large financial services organization with dozens of cost centers and competing priorities — a challenge Corebridge Financial faced head-on when evaluating Tanium. Rather than asking one team to absorb the full cost, they found the answer inside the platform itself: Tanium's Role-Based Access Control. By mapping Tanium's RBAC model to Corebridge's internal team structure, they carved the platform into distinct, scoped environments, each giving a different business unit ownership over its own endpoints, data, and workflows — and a clear line of sight between budget contribution and value received. IT Operations, Security, and Compliance each became stakeholders in the purchase rather than passengers on someone else's procurement. This session tells that story: how RBAC became not just a security control but a commercial strategy, turning a single vendor negotiation into a multi-team win.
