Tanium Comply must be configured to receive Open Vulnerability and Assessment Language (OVAL) feeds only from trusted sources.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion>OVAL XML documents are provided from several possible sources such as the Community Intercomparison Suite (CIS) open-source repository and vendor/third-party paid repositories. These documents are used to automate the passive validation of vulnerabilities on systems and therefore require a reasonable level of confidence in their origin. Nonapproved OVAL definitions lead to a false sense of security when evaluating an enterprise environment.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
