Today, May 13, 2025, the European leg of the Tanium Converge World Tour kicked off at the iconic Hippodrome de Paris Longchamp. This landmark event brought together over 250 Tanium executives, product leaders, customers, and partners to collectively envision the future of IT infrastructure management and cybersecurity. The central theme of the discussions is the concept of Tanium Autonomous Endpoint Management (AEM) and the role of artificial intelligence in its realization, promising a true revolution in how organizations see, control, and protect their increasingly complex IT ecosystems.
In a world where the number of endpoints (from servers and workstations to IoT devices) is growing exponentially, and cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated, traditional management and security approaches are no longer sufficient. IT and security teams are overwhelmed with routine tasks, react to incidents after the fact, and waste precious time gathering up-to-date data. This is where Tanium AEM enters the stage, offering a fundamentally new approach. The platform harnesses the power of artificial intelligence and automation to proactively manage and secure millions of endpoints in real-time. Tanium representatives, including Randy Menon (SVP of Product Management) and Harman Kaur (VP of AI), detailed how AEM accelerates automation, strengthens security, and enhances IT system performance at any scale.
The core idea behind Tanium AEM is the use of real-time data from endpoints for intelligent recommendations and subsequent automation of necessary actions. The system can autonomously discover vulnerabilities, manage configurations, respond to incidents, ensure policy compliance, and even improve the Digital Employee Experience. Its not just a set of tools, but a holistic platform that, according to the company, is "the industrys only true real-time platform for AI" in the context of endpoint management. Today, companies managing over 34 million endpoints worldwide, including 40% of the Fortune 100, rely on Tanium AEM.
Of particular interest at the Paris Converge event was the demonstration of the new Tanium Integrations Gallery. This innovation allows users to easily discover, deploy, and manage joint solutions with key technology partners like Microsoft and ServiceNow, directly from the Tanium console. For example, the integration of Tanium AEM with ServiceNow, enhanced by ServiceNow AI Agents, enables autonomous resolution of employee-created IT incidents, significantly boosting operational efficiency. As Rob Jenks, SVP of Strategy at Tanium, emphasized, "AI agents are only as smart as the data theyre fed," and Tanium equips these agents with real-time visibility into critical endpoint data at an unprecedented scale.
Thus, Tanium Autonomous Endpoint Management (AEM) is positioned not just as a technological update, but as a strategic shift, giving IT and security departments "The Power of Certainty™" – the confidence that they can make the right decisions and take the right actions at the right time, based on accurate real-time data. The Paris stop of the Converge World Tour served as a vivid demonstration of how Tanium envisions a future where AI and automation free humans from routine tasks, allowing them to focus on truly important strategic objectives in protecting and developing digital assets.
