How frequently do Tanium Clients typically communicate with the Tanium Server by default?

Tanium Clients are designed to communicate with the Tanium Server to ensure that they receive updates and maintain synchronization of data. By default, this communication occurs every 10 minutes. This interval is important as it strikes a balance between timely data updates and efficient resource usage.

Setting the communication interval at 10 minutes allows organizations to obtain near-real-time visibility into their endpoints while avoiding the potential network strain and performance impacts that could arise from more frequent communications. Thus, maintaining a 10-minute default helps ensure that the Tanium environment operates smoothly while still providing up-to-date information necessary for effective endpoint management and threat detection.
