Tachyon
The fastest platform to query and control all endpoints
In the digital world, your business demands a lot from IT operations. This demand is unpredictable, urgent, and above all, relentless.
You need to be agile enough to move at the pace of any IT incident, security threat or compliance risk.
Tachyon transforms urgent ad-hoc issue identification and resolution time from hours to minutes. Interact live with each of your endpoints as if you were on every device, and schedule instructions to enable powerful automation.

Shared working
Tachyon bridges the gap between IT operations, security and compliance teams to coordinate and prioritize fixing urgent issues that impact their business. Data from your IT estate is correlated for rapid analysis and instant remediation. Business leaders gain confidence that their IT systems are working optimally, securely and in full compliance with industry and licensing regulations.
Interactive conversations
Tachyon is the fastest EDR solution that allows you to interact directly with endpoints in a manner similar to holding a conversation. When you ask a question, you get an immediate and accurate answer from live or historic data, not from a cache or database. Follow on questions and actions enable you to complete every task instantly overcoming delays inherent in policy based solutions, making SCCM even more effective without impacting your network, devices or IT operations.
2 Minute Product Packs
Tachyon is supplied with an extensive library of instructions that can be directed to endpoints to ask questions and take actions. Tachyon’s powerful extensibility encapsulates expert learning to simplify complex tasks that are more specific to your organization’s needs which can then be shared across your organization.
| FEATURE | TACHYON | TANIUM |
|---|---|---|
| Fast and direct communication Faster than peer-to-peer solutions, Tachyon is as fast as a ‘ping’. No resource utilization when idle. |
Each agent maintains a direct secure connection with the Tachyon server. | Tanium uses peer-to-peer chains of 100 devices to operate optimally; VPN and internet connected devices are unable to use this optimization. |
| Data Accuracy No caching means that you always get accurate results from any interaction. You gain confidence and save time. |
Device data is always up to date as results are immediately sent using a secure open channel. | Tanium’s approach is to execute sensors based on a periodic schedule. |
| Scalability No expensive refit of network or infrastructure is required to serve even the largest of enterprises. |
Supports up to 1.5 million endpoints connected directly using commodity hardware. | With 20 MB data from each device, stored centrally, SQL Server Enterprise is required. |
| Network bandwidth Minimal impact on networks, infrastructure and endpoints meaning no hardware changes are required. |
Dynamically adjusts network bandwidth usage, prioritizing for normal business activity. | Bandwidth is statically tuned and cannot react to changing network conditions. |
| Multi-platform agents Execute instructions without writing platform specific code. |
Supports interaction with all types of devices from servers to IoT. | Tanium requires platform specific sensors to be written each with their own language. |
| Internal, external and mobile Securely manage devices in remote offices or connected via the cloud. |
Easily accesses devices regardless of network type or topology. | Mobile devices may face challenges, as Tanium agents have to contact the servers periodically. |
| Powerful open extensibility Easily extends Tachyon functionality using the open, community backed, agent language. |
Extensions can include any command or script. |
Tanium can only be extended by writing sensors in a language native to the device. |
| Intuitive user experience Only the results that have been requested are returned. |
Tachyon Explorer guides the user to ask the right question. | Natural language may lead to unpredictable results, requiring the user to retry questions and slowing investigations. |
