Vulnerability discussion

Indicators of Compromise (IOC) is an artifact that is observed on the network or system that indicates computer intrusion. The Tanium IOC Detect module detects, manages, and analyzes systems against IOCs real-time. The module also responds to those detections.By forwarding events the IOC Detect module, using Tanium Connect with a syslog or SIEM connection, captures the necessary forensic evidence supporting a compromise is retained.

Check content

Consult with the Tanium System Administrator to determine if the "Tanium Detect" module is being used. If it is not, this is "Not Applicable". Using a web browser on a system that has connectivity to Tanium, access the Tanium web user interface (UI) and log on with CAC. Click on the navigation button (hamburger menu) on the top left of the console. Click on "Connect". Click "Events" under "Sources". Verify the "Tanium IOC Detect" event is being sent to an identified destination. If there is no "Tanium IOC Detect" event source, this is a finding.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
