Tanium, the industry’s leading provider of Converged Endpoint Management (XEM), has been named to the Forbes 2024 Cloud 100, the definitive ranking of the top 100 private cloud companies in the world, published by Forbes in partnership with Bessemer Venture Partners and Salesforce Ventures. Ranking in the #20 spot, this marks the ninth consecutive year that Tanium has secured a position on the prestigious list.
“At Tanium, our mission of providing certainty in uncertain times is more important today than ever. Tanium is uniquely positioned to protect the world’s most security-conscious organizations from growing complexity and risk, while enabling them to embrace digital transformation. Through the Tanium cloud, we broaden access to our XEM platform, allowing organizations of different sizes to manage and protect their environments,” said Steve Daheb, Chief Marketing Officer at Tanium. “Furthermore, with the introduction of Autonomous Endpoint Management (AEM), Tanium provides real-time data and insights to automate routine tasks, streamline threat remediation, and will offer personalized, AI-driven insights and recommendations.”
The Tanium platform provides the unmatched capability to unify IT operations and security teams on a single platform through real-time control and visibility. It leverages the real-time analysis of change on all global cloud endpoints to recommend and automate the specific changes needed on any endpoint within an IT environment.
“For nine years, the Forbes Cloud 100 list has recognized the leading private cloud companies in the world, from AI to work software, infrastructure to security,” said Alex Konrad, the Forbes editor of the Cloud 100. “This year’s list is the strongest group of standouts yet, with revenue, valuations and growth that will eventually make for historic IPOs.”
“Across nine years of data, we have yet to see as competitive of a cohort as the 2024 Cloud 100. The list value reached $820 billion this year, the highest list value in Cloud 100 history,” said Mary D’Onofrio, partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. “Unsurprisingly, AI is now the highest valued category. We continue to be excited by how AI companies are scaling rapidly, transforming the cloud, and propelling the next wave of growth, driving a massive year-over-year jump in market cap of the list of over $150 billion.”
For the ninth consecutive year, the Cloud 100 reviews submissions from hundreds of cloud startups and private companies each year. The Cloud 100 evaluation process involved ranking companies across four factors: market leadership (35%), estimated valuation (30%), operating metrics (20%), and people & culture (15%). For market leadership, the Cloud 100 enlists the help of a judging panel of public cloud company CEOs who assist in evaluating and ranking their private company peers.
“The past year, our industry has seen a generational step forward in innovation, and with AI leading the charge, we are witnessing one of the most important platform shifts in decades,” said Paul Drews, managing partner at Salesforce Ventures. “The Cloud 100 list represents the best of the best, and we’ve never been more excited about what the future holds, not only for the cloud but for the entire technology industry. We are proud of what these founders and their communities have already accomplished, and look forward to seeing how they continue to transform the industry in the future.”
