Regarding its self-purported 15-second visibility/control: Tanium claims it can navigate, interrogate, and act on problematic issues-as well as detect and remediate threats-in 15 seconds, regardless of infrastructure size or complexity. Its endpoint security and management solution merges advanced features like natural language search and 15-second visibility/control to rapidly discover security gaps and vulnerabilities for quick remediation and protection against cyber attacks. Tanium was founded by father/son duo Orion and David Hindawi in 2007 to address the rising tide of polymorphic malware and advanced persistent threats (APT)-digital menaces that current solutions cannot fully protect against.
CylancePROTECT is able to successfully combat malware, viruses, bots, 0-days, and unknown future threats by combining AI/ML with vast data sets these are in turn compressed/encrypted and deployed across endpoints for quick detection.
These methods do little for organizations under 0-day attacks or in the presence of advanced persistent threats (APT). Existing security platforms rely on human-generated signatures from previously discovered samples, in conjunction with whitelists, sandboxing, heuristics, and other rule-based detection methods. The platform essentially applies mathematics, algorithmic intelligence, and machine learning to accurately distinguish between threats and benign actors-a feat traditional solutions are increasingly incapable of accomplishing. The company bills its CylancePROTECT solution as an advanced threat protection platform built on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML)-heavy-sounding artillery indeed, but what does this entail? Gartner recently named Cylance as a visionary in the 2016 Magic Quadrant for endpoint protection platforms. Given that endpoints are the most common soft target compromised by cyber attackers, both firms focus on protecting these highly vulnerable soft targets-one with AI-powered malware protection, the other with 15 second control and visibility. Better solutions couldn't be more timely-according to new data from Lloyd's of London, 9 out of 10 big business have suffered a major cyber attack. Cybersecurity startups like Tanium and Cylance are responding to this efficacy gap with offerings they claim will redefine endpoint threat detection and response (EDR). Let's find out if these security vendors' solutions can give organizations a fighting chance in a digital world fraught with cyber threats.Įndpoint security remains a vital component of enterprise security, even as current solutions on the market continue to fade in their effectiveness at preventing security compromises. Cylance and Tanium-both firms are in the billion dollar valuation club, but what does this buy in terms of cybersecurity? Tanium claims 15 seconds to visibility and control, while Cylance combines AI and machine learning with endpoint protection.
