Tanium announced that it
has been nominated to join the Microsoft Intelligent
Security Association (MISA
), an ecosystem of independent software vendors
and managed security service providers (MSSPs) that have integrated their
solutions with Microsoft security technology to help customers better defend
themselves against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.  
 
“I am excited to see that Tanium and Microsoft are working together,” said Andy
Lawrence, cyber security improvements manager, Willis Towers Watson. “Combining
Tanium’s real-time data and control with Microsoft’s services will allow my
team to more effectively manage and secure my entire IT estate.”  
 
Tanium was nominated for MISA membership as a result of an integration with
Microsoft Sentinel, soon to be available via the Sentinel Content Hub.
Currently, Tanium is available in
the Microsoft Commercial Marketplace, an online store providing applications
and services for use on Azure. Customers can purchase and provision Tanium
directly from the marketplace and apply the purchase to their Microsoft Azure
Consumption Commitments (MACC). Every day, Tanium customers around the world
take advantage of the Azure cloud platform, including streamlined deployment
and provisioning, to accelerate their security strategies. 
 
“The largest and most sophisticated organizations trust Tanium to manage and
secure their digital estates,” said Rob Jenks, senior vice
president of corporate strategy at Tanium. “Combining Microsoft’s security
solutions with Tanium’s real-time data, distribution, and control not only
enables effective automation and resilient security, but it also creates
accelerated savings for customers converging multiple point solutions into
fewer, more comprehensive, and robust solutions.” 
 
As hybrid work and other digital transformations expand organizations’ IT
assets and attack surfaces, customers benefit by consolidating security
platforms to more seamlessly deliver security, performance, and automation,
without needless complexity and alert fatigue. Together, Tanium’s integrations
with Microsoft’s technology deliver the capabilities customers need to manage
and secure IT estate from cloud to the edge, including active threat hunting,
faster remediation, real-time patching, and the automated delivery of detailed
real-time data 
 
“Members of the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association – like Tanium –
integrate their security solutions with Microsoft’s technology to gain more
signal, increase visibility and better protect against threats. By extending
Microsoft’s security capabilities across the ecosystem, we help our shared
customers to succeed.” – Maria Thomson, Microsoft Intelligent Security Association
Lead.
