Description
Failure to a known state can address safety or security in accordance with the mission/business needs of the organization. Failure to a known secure state helps prevent a loss of confidentiality, integrity, or availability in the event of a failure of the information system or a component of the system. Preserving application state information helps to facilitate application restart and return to the operational mode of the organization with less disruption to mission-essential processes.

Who does this work

13 NICE work roles and 8 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Check Text (C-254918r961125_chk)

Tanium Server: 1. Using a web browser on a system that has connectivity to the Tanium Application, access the Tanium Application web user interface (UI) and log on with multi-factor authentication. 2. Click "Administration" on the top navigation banner. 3. Under "Configuration," select "Common". 4. Select "Log Level". 5. In "Log Verbosity Level for Troubleshooting," verify current level for "Tanium Server" is set. If the value for current level for "Tanium Server" is not set to "1" or higher this is a finding. Tanium Client: 1. Using a web browser on a system that has connectivity to the Tanium Application, access the Tanium Application web user interface (UI) and log on with multi-factor authentication. 2. Click "Modules" on the top navigation banner. 3. Click "Interact". 4. In the "Explore Data" box, type the following question: 4A. Get Tanium Client Explicit Setting[LogVerbosityLevel] < 1 and Is Windows from all machines with Tanium Client Explicit Setting[LogVerbosityLevel] < 1 Note: For VDI systems, follow vendor guidance: https://docs.tanium.com/client/client/os_imaging.html#VDI If there are any answers returned that are "0" this is a finding.
