The Tanium application must uniquely identify and authenticate nonorganizational users (or processes acting on behalf of nonorganizational users).

Description

<VulnDiscussion>Lack of authentication and identification enables nonorganizational users to gain access to the application or possibly other information systems and provides an opportunity for intruders to compromise resources within the application or information system. Nonorganizational users include all information system users other than organizational users, which includes organizational employees or individuals the organization deems to have equivalent status of employees (e.g., contractors and guest researchers). Nonorganizational users must be uniquely identified and authenticated for all accesses other than those accesses explicitly identified and documented by the organization when related to the use of anonymous access, such as accessing a web server.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
