Tanium Client processes must be excluded from On-Access scan.
Overview
| Finding ID | Version | Rule ID | IA Controls | Severity |
| V-253781 | TANS-00-001055 | SV-253781r1099925_rule | CCI-000366 | medium |
| Description | ||||
| Similar to any other host-based applications, the Tanium Client is subject to the restrictions other system-level software may place on an operating environment. Antivirus, intrusion prevention system (IPS), encryption, or other security and management stack software may disallow the Client from working as expected. | ||||

Check Text (C-253781r1099925_chk)
Review the settings of the antivirus software.
Verify exclusions exist that exclude the Tanium Client process interactions from On-Access scans and are treated as Low-Risk.
If exclusions do not exist, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-57184r842370_fix)
Implement exclusion policies within the antivirus software to exclude the On-Access scanning of Tanium Client process interactions. These processes should be treated as Low-Risk and not scanned during read or write events.
