SRG-APP-000357
Group -
The Tanium application must allocate audit record storage capacity in accordance with organization-defined audit record storage requirements.
In order to ensure applications have a sufficient storage capacity in which to write the audit logs, applications need to be able to allocate audit record storage capacity. The task of allocating...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000358
Group -
The Tanium application must offload audit records onto a different system or media than the system being audited.
Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration. Offloading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity.Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000359
Group -
The Tanium application must provide an immediate warning to the SA and ISSO (at a minimum) when allocated audit record storage volume reaches 75 percent of repository maximum audit record storage capacity.
If security personnel are not notified immediately upon storage volume utilization reaching 75 percent, they are unable to plan for storage capacity expansion.Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000360
Group -
The Tanium application must provide an immediate real-time alert to the SA and ISSO, at a minimum, of all audit failure events requiring real-time alerts.
It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required. Without a real-time alert, security personnel may be unaware of an impe...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000377
Group -
Access to the Tanium Application Servers must be restricted. Only the designated administrator(s) can have elevated privileges to the Tanium Application Servers.
Unauthorized software not only increases risk by increasing the number of potential vulnerabilities, it also can contain malicious code. Sending an alert (in real time) when unauthorized software i...Rule Low Severity -
SRG-APP-000378
Group -
The Tanium application must prohibit user installation of software without explicit privileged status.
Allowing regular users to install software without explicit privileges creates the risk that untested or potentially malicious software will be installed on the system. Explicit privileges (escalat...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000380
Group -
The application must enforce access restrictions associated with changes to application configuration.
Failure to provide logical access restrictions associated with changes to application configuration may have significant effects on the overall security of the system. When dealing with access re...Rule Medium Severity -

Firewall rules must be configured on the Tanium Server for Server-to-Database communications.
The Tanium Server can use either a SQL Server RDBMS installed locally to the same device as the Tanium Server application or a remote dedicated or shared SQL Server instance. Using a local SQL Serv...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000383
Group -
Firewall rules must be configured on the Tanium module server to allow Server-to-Module Server communications from the Tanium Server.
