What EDR capabilities does Tanium provide through Threat Response?

• A. Data backup.
• B. Real-time endpoint visibility, threat hunting, containment actions, and guided investigation workflows.
• C. Only alerting with dashboards.
• D. Limited to inventory.

Answer: (B)

Tanium Threat Response provides a complete EDR capability set by combining real-time endpoint visibility, threat hunting, containment actions, and guided investigation workflows. Real-time visibility means you can see what’s happening on endpoints as it happens—seeing processes, file changes, network activity, and event sequences across the fleet to spot anomalies quickly. Threat hunting lets you proactively search for indicators of compromise, perform retrospective analysis, and build timelines to understand what occurred. Containment actions enable rapid response to stop spread, such as isolating a compromised machine, terminating malicious processes, blocking network communication, or quarantining files. Guided investigation workflows provide structured playbooks that walk responders through data collection, analysis, and remediation steps, ensuring consistent and faster resolution. This combination captures the full EDR capability set better than options that focus only on backups, simple dashboards, or inventory, which don’t provide real-time detection, proactive hunting, rapid containment, and guided remediation.
