Tanium named leader in 2024 IDC MarketScape for endpoint management
Tanium has been recognised as a Leader in the 2024 IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Client Endpoint Management Software for Windows Devices. The IDC MarketScape report, an influential assessment in the technology sector, highlights Tanium's excellence in real-time vulnerability management, sensitive data monitoring, and policy enforcement across various endpoints.
The recognition comes as enterprises increasingly prioritise risk mitigation and operational efficiency in managing large Windows deployments. The Tanium XEM platform is praised for its comprehensive, real-time visibility, control, and remediation capabilities that span Windows, Mac, and Linux devices. By integrating solutions from visibility to remediation, Tanium enables organisations to dismantle traditional silos, significantly reducing complexity, costs, and risks typically associated with multiple-point solutions.
Phil Hochmuth, Programme Vice President of Endpoint Management & Enterprise Mobility at IDC, remarked on the growing importance of such technologies. "Tanium’s technology is a powerful tool for any organisation looking to improve security, reduce risk, and ultimately save money. By converging endpoint device management and security operations, Tanium’s XEM platform unites both tools and teams, streamlines workflows, and addresses many persistent challenges with traditional siloed security approaches."
The IDC MarketScape report specifically recommends Tanium for organisations managing extensive Windows device deployments and enterprises with large, distributed workforces. Such organisations, particularly those aiming to improve cyber hygiene, reduce risks, and lower costs, may find Tanium's strong integration of endpoint management and security operations appealing.
Matt Quinn, Chief Technology Officer at Tanium, expressed the company’s satisfaction with the recognition. "We believe our XEM platform is a proven market leader for consolidating point security solutions, eliminating siloes, and reducing cost and risk. We further believe this recognition from the IDC MarketScape is a testament to the importance of real-time data, which is at the heart of our platform and the foundational element in an organisation’s journey to becoming fully autonomous."
The Tanium XEM platform's ability to combine real-time endpoint visibility with actionable data aligns well with Tanium’s vision for autonomous endpoint management (AEM). This capability supports a more unified and efficient approach to endpoint security and management, which is increasingly crucial in today’s complex IT environments.
Tanium's latest accolade by the IDC MarketScape underscores the ongoing evolution and necessity of integrated endpoint management and security solutions in modern enterprises. As digital landscapes become more intricate, Tanium’s confluence of management and security operations offers a robust framework for enterprises looking to fortify their operational infrastructure while managing costs and mitigating risks.
