This connector allows organizations to feed the Tanium Intels using OpenCTI knowledge.
This connector leverages the OpenCTI events stream, so it consumes knowledge in real time and, depending on its settings, create detection and hunting intel pieces in the Tanium platform.
OpenCTI data is coming from import connectors. Once this data is ingested in OpenCTI, it is pushed to a Redis event stream. This stream is consumed by the Tanium connector to insert intel in the Tanium platform.
- OpenCTI Platform >= 5.0.0
- Tanium Threat Response >= 3.X.X

After launching the connector, you should be able to see a new Intel source within the Tanium platform:
Then just add the proper label to an indicator (tanium_import_label) or to a file observables (tanium_reputation_blacklist_label).
