Tanium 7.x Application on TanOS Security Technical Implementation Guide

Discussion

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 audit record storage capacity is usually performed during initial installation of the application and is closely associated with the DBA and system administrator roles. The DBA or system administrator will usually coordinate the allocation of physical drive space with the application owner/installer and the application will prompt the installer to provide the capacity information, the physical location of the disk, or both.

Check Content

1. Access the TanOS interactively.

2. Press "A" for "Appliance Configuration Menu," and then press "Enter".

3. Press "4" for "Syslog Configuration," and then press "Enter".

4. Press "1" for "Check current status," and then press "Enter".

If the syslog status page states "No existing TanOS syslog forwarding configuration found" this is a finding.

If the syslog status page states "Syslog forwarding configuration" and the SIEM administrator verifies SIEM is receiving the events correctly and generating notifications for low free disk space, this is not a finding.
