Tanium Platform

About the Device

Tanium is endpoint security solution which helps to secure and manage endpoints regardless of scale or size. Tanium’s patented linear-chain architecture turbocharges security and operations tasks so that actions previously taking hours or

even days can be accomplished in seconds.

The Tanium Server is the server that communicates with TaniumTM Clients. Tanium Clients communicate with the Tanium Server directly or through a Tanium Zone Server that acts as a proxy.

The Tanium Module Server runs application services and stores files for Tanium solution modules. The Module Server communicates directly only with the Tanium Server.

Device Information

Collection Method

Port Requirements

To facilitate secure communication and align with our best practice, we strongly encourage the use of Transport Layer Security (TLS) between your security devices and our Adaptive MxDR platform for event forwarding.

While we understand that TLS support may not be available on all devices, if your devices do support TLS communication, we recommend utilizing port 6514 for seamless integration.

In some cases, the upgraded version of the device might incorporate TLS support without prior notice. If you come across such a scenario or for further assistance in configuring TLS, we kindly ask you to reach out to your dedicated Adaptive MxDR Service Delivery Lead.
