Back to Tanium 7.3 Security Technical Implementation Guide
Severity: Medium
<VulnDiscussion>Similar to any other host-based applications, the Tanium Server is subject to the restrictions other System-level software may place on an operating environment. Antivirus, Encryption, or other security and management stack software may disallow the Tanium Server from working as expected. https://docs.tanium.com/platform_install/platform_install/reference_host_system_security_exceptions.html.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
Consult with the Tanium System Administrator to determine the file-level encryption software used on the Tanium Server. Review the settings for the file-level encryption software. Validate exclusions exist which exclude the Tanium program files from being encrypted by the file-level encryption software. If exclusions do not exist, this is a finding.
Implement excluding policies within the file-level encryption software solution to exclude encryption of the Tanium Server program files.
