# Tanium

> Tanium is a privately held cybersecurity and systems-management company that built its business on a simple, stubborn idea: you should be able to ask a question of every computer in a large organization and get an accurate answer in seconds. Its Converged Endpoint Management (XEM) platform uses a peer-to-peer 'linear chain' architecture to query and control millions of endpoints in near real time, collapsing the gap between security teams and IT operations. Founded in 2007 by BigFix veterans David and Orion Hindawi, Tanium now secures more than 33 million endpoints for dozens of Fortune 500 companies, major banks, retailers, and government defense agencies, and is pushing into autonomous, AI-driven IT operations with products like Tanium Atlas.
