Title

The Tanium Application Server must be configured with a connector to sync to Microsoft Active Directory for account management functions. (Cat II impact)

Discussion

By restricting access to the Tanium Server to only Microsoft Active Directory, user accounts and related permissions can be strictly monitored. Account management will be under the operational responsibility of the System Administrator for the Windows Operation System Active Directory. Satisfies: SRG-APP-000233, SRG-APP-000317
