Tanium is a bit like the Uber of cyber-security companies. The California startup is good at what it does, commands an eye-popping valuation, and is led by a mercurial CEO whose aggressive tactics sometimes rub people the wrong way.
And like Uber, Tanium is taking its time going public. On Thursday, the company announced it is raising $100 million through the sale of common stock, which it will use to repurchase shares from one of its founders and to provide liquidity for early employees.
