Description
Indicators of Compromise (IOC) are artifacts, which are observed on the network or system that indicates computer intrusion. The Tanium Detect module detects, manages, and analyzes systems intrusion in real time. The module also responds to those detections. By forwarding Detect events using Tanium Connect, the necessary forensic evidence supporting a compromise is retained.
