My employer has purchased Tanium for Endpoint Management. Now I get to manage the migration of +60k endpoints from BigFix to Tanium, plus all the Content. Of course, the folks that cut the deal haven't told any of us that have to IMPLEMENT the deal what is IN the deal. I'm a Mushroom. They keep me in the dark and feed me manure and piss on my head.
