See It, Fix It: Comply to Deploy/Patch in Action: Tanium Tech Talks #165
Finding a vulnerability is easy. Closing the loop from finding to fixing is where programs stall.
That gap — identify, prioritize, deploy a fix safely, then confirm it's actually gone — is what closed-loop remediation solves. Today we're walking through how to take Tanium's vulnerability findings and turn them not just into vulnerability remediations — but also as ways to identify and fix gaps in your OS & 3rd party patching programs.
In this episode you'll learn:
🔎 How to turn vulnerability findings directly into remediation — in one platform, no integrations to stitch together
How to surface and close the gaps hiding in your OS and third-party (application) patching programs
🎯 How to prioritize what to fix first using real-world risk signals (EPSS, CISA KEV, MITRE ATT&CK) — not just severity
🚦 How to deploy fixes safely with automated, ring-based rollout that removes friction without losing control
✅ How to close the loop — confirming a vulnerability is truly remediated, and managing accepted-risk exceptions
🔧 How to tackle the "unpatchable" vulnerabilities with device actions and central policy
🤖 How Tanium Atlas accelerates the workflow with AI-powered analysis and recommendations on your real-time data
