1. Consult with the personnel who maintain the Enterprise Security Suite to configure host-based and network firewall rules to allow the following: 1A. Tanium Clients or Zone Clients over TCP port 17472, bi-directionally. 2. Consult with the boundary network firewall administrator to create a rule to allow the following: 2A. TCP traffic on port 17472 from any computer to be managed on a local area network to any other computer to be managed on the same local area network.

Note: If a Zone Server is not being used, this is Not Applicable. 1. Consult with the Tanium System Administrator to verify which firewall is being used as a host-based firewall on the Tanium Zone Server. 2. Access the host-based firewall configuration on the Tanium Zone Server. 3. Validate a rule exists for the following: 3A. Port Needed: Tanium Clients to Zone Server over TCP port 17472, bi-directionally. If a host-based firewall rule does not exist to allow TCP port 17472, bi-directionally, from Tanium Clients to the Tanium Zone Server, this is a finding.

Review the PPSM CAL to ensure Tanium has been registered with all of the TCP ports required for functionality to include (but not limited to) TCP 17472, 17477, 17440, 17441, and 433. If any TCP ports are being used on the Tanium Server that have been deemed as restricted by the PPSM CAL, this is a finding.

The Tanium endpoint makes a connection to the Tanium Server; the endpoint's copy of the Tanium Server's public key is used to verify the validity of the registration day coming from the Tanium Server. If any endpoint systems do not have the correct Tanium Server public key in its configuration, they will not perform any instructions from the Tanium Server and a record of those endpoints will be listed in the Tanium Server's System Status. To validate: 1. Using a web browser on a system that has connectivity to the Tanium Application, access the Tanium Application web user interface (UI) and log on with multi-factor authentication. 2. Click "Administration" on the top navigation banner. 3 . Select the "Client Status" tab. 4. Click "Administration". 5. Change "Show systems that have reported in the last:", enter "7" in the first field. 6. Select "Days" from the drop-down menu in the second field to determine if any endpoints connected with an invalid key. If any systems are listed with "No" in the "Valid Key" column, this is a finding.
Fix: F-58466r867626_fix
For systems which do not have a valid key for the Tanium Server, redeploy the client software using the Tanium Client Management (TCM) or work with the Tanium System Administrator to accomplish this. Documentation on TCM: https://docs.tanium.com/client/client/index.html.

Ensure all components of the Tanium application have been updated within 60 days of the vulnerability being announced by Tanium. Critical Vulnerabilities must be updated within 30 days. --- Consult with the Tanium System Administrator to review the documented time window designated for updates. If a window of time is not defined, or does not specify a reoccurring frequency, this is a finding. 1. Using a web browser on a system that has connectivity to the Tanium Application, access the Tanium Application web user interface (UI) and log on with multi-factor authentication. 2. Click "Administration" on the top navigation banner. 3. Under "Configuration," select "Solutions". If any module has the text, "Update to" a newer (greater) version number compared to the Installed version number in the Tanium Modules section of the page, this is a finding. If the Tanium application is an "airgap" installation, work with the Tanium Technical System Administrator to determine if the modules are up to date.
