Tanium Reveal: A Federated Search Engine for Querying Unstructured File Data on Large Enterprise Networks
Summary: Tanium Reveal: federated search of unstructured data across billions of files on endpoints, with per-endpoint indexes and a global control plane. Contributions: asynchronous endpoint indexing, self-organizing fault-tolerant linear-chain communication, and RBAC with cryptographic hashing. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
