Tanium relaunches its SecOps product to rank endpoints that act out of character
Tanium relaunched Tanium Security Operations around Endpoint Drift, a detector that ranks endpoints acting out of character against their own learned baseline. The bet is that AI-assisted intruders will log in with stolen credentials and run IT's own admin tools, which a list of known-bad files will not catch.

Tanium shipped detection, response and hunting tools on its Atlas agent platform that query endpoints live, instead of SIEM logs it says can be hours old. Teams rolling them out have to decide which actions, such as quarantining a host, an agent may take without a person signing off.
