Tanium 7.x Operating System on TanOS Security Technical Implementation Guide

Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • SRG-OS-000304

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Tanium must audit and notify system administrators (SAs) and information system security officers (ISSOs) when accounts are enabled.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Once an attacker establishes access to a system, the attacker often attempts to create a persistent method of reestablishing ...

  • SRG-OS-000329

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • Tanium must automatically lock accounts and require them be unlocked by an administrator when three unsuccessful login attempts in 15 minutes are exceeded.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;By limiting the number of failed login attempts, the risk of unauthorized system access via user password guessing, otherwise...

  • SRG-OS-000342

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • The Tanium operating system (TanOS) must provide an immediate real-time alert to the SA and ISSO, at a minimum, of all audit failure events requiring real-time alerts.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required....

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • The Tanium operating system (TanOS) must, for networked systems, compare internal information system clocks at least every 24 hours with a server synchronized to one of the redundant United States Naval Observatory (USNO) time servers or a time server designated for the appropriate DOD network (NIPRNet/SIPRNet), and/or the Global Positioning System (GPS).

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Inaccurate time stamps make it more difficult to correlate events and can lead to an inaccurate analysis. Determining the cor...

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • The Tanium Operating System (TanOS) must synchronize internal information system clocks to the authoritative time source when the time difference is greater than the organization-defined time period.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Inaccurate time stamps make it more difficult to correlate events and can lead to an inaccurate analysis. Determining the cor...

  • SRG-OS-000357

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • The Tanium Operating System (TanOS) must be configured to synchronize internal information system clocks with the primary and secondary time sources located in different geographic regions using redundant authoritative time sources.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;The loss of connectivity to a particular authoritative time source will result in the loss of time synchronization (free-run ...

    Group
  • The Tanium operating system (TanOS) must perform data integrity verification on the name/address resolution responses the system receives from authoritative sources.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;If data origin authentication and data integrity verification is not performed, the resultant response could be forged, it ma...

    Group
  • The Tanium Operating System (TanOS) must protect against or limit the effects of denial of service (DoS) attacks by employing organization-defined security safeguards.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;DoS is a condition when a resource is not available for legitimate users. When this occurs, the organization either cannot ac...

    Group
  • The Tanium operating system (TanOS) must install security-relevant software updates within the time period directed by an authoritative source (e.g., IAVM, CTOs, DTMs, and STIGs).

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Security flaws with operating systems are discovered daily. Vendors are constantly updating and patching their products to ad...

The content of the drawer really is up to you. It could have form fields, definition lists, text lists, labels, charts, progress bars, etc. Spacing recommendation is 24px margins. You can put tabs in here, and can also make the drawer scrollable.
