Data Sheet
Tanium IOC Detect
Tanium IOC Detect makes threat detection actionable and efficient by consolidating and
translating threat intelligence data from multiple sources to automatically detect complex
indicators of compromise across millions of endpoints in seconds.
Too Much Data, Not Enough Time
Modern cyber attacks are becoming more frequent, alarmingly stealthy and
terrifyingly efficient as polymorphic malware continue to bypass traditional
signature-based preventative measures and wreak havoc on high value assets.
Industry leaders, enterprises and government organizations are now fighting back
by investing heavily in security research to identify the unique characteristics of
these threats, and also by collaborating with community efforts dedicated to
combating cyber crime.
Unfortunately, security analysts and incident response teams within these
enterprises and government organizations are unable to take advantage of the
wealth of threat intelligence now available to them, because they do not have any
means to analyze this volume of complex data and remediate accordingly at the
speeds and scales required to stop attacks already underway.

The Tanium Difference
The Tanium Endpoint Platform is the first and only enterprise platform that empowers security and IT operations teams with 15-second
visibility and control to secure and manage every endpoint, even across the largest global networks. Its patented architecture transcends
the inherent limitations of hub-and-spoke technologies by harnessing the speed of low-latency local area networks coupled with a
minimal, cost-saving infrastructure that effortlessly scales to millions of endpoints without the need for ongoing addition and maintenance
of supporting servers. The Tanium Endpoint Platform delivers the speed, scalability and reliability necessary for defending against today’s
threat landscape.
Tanium IOC Detect Overview
Tanium IOC Detect, a module of the Tanium Endpoint Platform, provides the most adaptable and integrated threat detection solution
available. Tanium IOC Detect can evaluate complex indicators of compromise (IOC), which may contain dozens of attributes like filenames,
registry settings, IP addresses, MD5 hashes or even observable suspicious behaviors, on endpoints across networks of any size and return
back results in seconds. In addition, Tanium IOC Detect enables security teams to easily consolidate their threat intelligence data from
multiple sources and automate their detection and remediation workflow to accelerate the path to neutralizing persistent threats.
Tanium IOC Detect supports industry standard formats such as OpenIOC, Yara, STIX and TAXII.

Key Features
IOC Detection On Every Endpoint In Seconds
Tanium IOC Detect greatly accelerates threat detection by allowing for multiple IOCs to be evaluated in a single scan with minimal impact to
the endpoint and network, and it also makes the process trivially simple by automatically translating complex IOCs into questions that the
Tanium Endpoint Platform can ask every endpoint with just a single click.
Automated IOC Detection
Threats can strike at anytime, so having to manually seek
them out on an ongoing basis places a heavy burden on
security teams, because this responsibility becomes
progressively more time consuming as new threats continue
to emerge. With Tanium IOC Detect, security teams have the
flexibility to both automate IOC scans across the entire
enterprise, as well as perform quick ad-hoc scans against
just a select group of endpoints to ensure that there is never
a lapse in threat detection.
Threat Intelligence Integration
Tanium IOC Detect provides integrations with leading
commercial threat intelligence providers like ThreatStream
and iSIGHT Partners, as well as open platforms like Soltra
Edge. Tanium IOC Detect simplifies the process of unifying
relevant threat intelligence across multiple sources and
transforms the Tanium Endpoint Platform into the fastest
and most cost effective threat detection solution.
Automate IOC detection across millions of endpoints with accurate results
back in seconds.
Supports OpenIOC, Yara, STIX and TAXII
Tanium IOC Detect supports custom IOC definitions structured in popular industry standard formats such as OpenIOC, Yara and STIX.
Tanium makes it easy to share threat data internally across teams, as well as provide flexibility in creating or enhancing existing IOC
definitions that conform to these open standards to target specific organizational needs or considerations.
