1. Access the Tanium Server.

2. Log on to the server with an account that has administrative privileges.

3. Run regedit as Administrator.

4. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE >> SOFTWARE >> Wow6432Node >> Tanium >> Tanium Server.

5. Validate the value for REG_DWORD "ForceSOAPSSLClientCert" is set to "1".

6. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE >> SOFTWARE >> Wow6432Node >> Tanium >> Tanium Server.

7. Validate the following keys exist and are configured:

REG_SZ "ClientCertificateAuthField"
For example:
X509v3 Subject Alternative Name.

REG_SZ "ClientCertificateAuthRegex"
For example-DoD:
.+?Name:\s*?(\S+@[._a-zA-Z0-9]+).*
Note: This regex may vary and should be valid for any Subject Alternative Name entry.

REG_SZ "ClientCertificateAuth"
For example:
C:\Program Files\Tanium\Tanium Server\dod.pem

If the value for REG_DWORD "ForceSOAPSSLClientCert" is not set to "1" and the remaining registry values are not configured, this is a finding.
