What is Tanium Discover? #
Tanium Discover scans networks with hundreds of thousands of endpoints to find unmanaged assets. Administrators can choose to block the devices or bring them under management.
Why Should You Use the Tanium Discover Connector? #
The Tanium Discover connector provides visibility into the endpoints in your environment. You can use this visibility to:
-
ensure assets are managed per your security policies
-
derive relationships between assets, users, applications, and data
How Does This Connector Work? #
Lucidum executes read-only requests to the Tanium Discover REST API and ingests only meta-data about Tanium Discover devices. Lucidum does not retrieve any data stored on your assets.
