Tanium is a converged endpoint management and security platform designed to give agencies real-time visibility, control and remediation across all endpoints (servers, laptops, cloud instances, etc.). It unifies IT operations and cybersecurity into a single platform, enabling:
- Endpoint management: Provision, patch, update, and manage endpoints at scale
- Security operations: Detect, investigate, and remediate threats in real time
- Vulnerability management: Continuous monitoring and automated patching
- Asset discovery: Maintain accurate hardware/software inventory
- Compliance and risk management: Enforce policies and monitor sensitive data

The MOU is a formal agreement between your organization and NCDIT that outlines participation in SecureNC. It confirms your intent to move forward and defines roles, responsibilities and expectations for deployment. NCDIT will send the MOU following your intake form submission, if you have not received it previously.
Yes. The MOU must be signed before deployment can begin. If you have any questions about language in the MOU, please reach out to Deputy State Chief Information Officer Jennifer Fix (Jennifer.fix@nc.gov) to discuss any concerns.
The demo provides an overview of Tanium’s capabilities and incorporates insights from your intake form. It lasts about one hour and may include other interested parties to foster collaborative learning.
For general inquiries, email esrmo@nc.gov. ESRMO also hosts weekly office hours each Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. for a Q&A and deeper discussions.
Nothing. The state of North Carolina has funded this program. There is no cost to the participating local organizations. Participating organizations onboarding before July 2026 will not be asked to pay for future use of the products.
Licenses are provided based on the amount requested on the intake form. While there is no maximum or cap on licenses, this amount must be a realistic amount based on your organization's size.
Local organizations are required to have support from local executives and to provide an executive and technical point of contact. Local organizations must make consistent progress with onboarding and use of the product(s) at their organizations. Licenses assigned to non-responsive organizations may be reallocated to another organization.
The time for set-up will vary with each product. The program’s vendor partners and the state’s internal product owners will work with your technical team on the set-up. The intent of this program is to provide support for your organization to make the onboarding process as minimal as possible. Professional assistance will be provided by the vendors to assist you throughout the onboarding process.

Currently, we are prioritizing Tanium onboarding for tier 1 and tier 2 local government entities to provide a no-cost, unified platform to help counties, cities and other government entities secure their IT infrastructure. This solution, providing real-time visibility, control and automated endpoint management, will help improve cybersecurity, efficiency and constituent service delivery.
If you are interested in Tanium but do not fall into the tier 1 or tier 2 designation, please provide your information in an email to esrmo@nc.gov. ESRMO will provide additional guidance and/or add you to the list for future program phases.
