What are common causes of Tanium Client failures?

Common causes of Tanium Client failures often relate directly to the capability of the client to operate effectively within its environment. Insufficient system resources, such as CPU, memory, or storage, can hinder the client’s performance and its ability to communicate effectively with the Tanium server. If the client does not have enough resources available, it may not be able to perform necessary functions or may operate slowly, resulting in communication issues and eventual failure.

Additionally, using a missing or outdated Tanium Client version poses a significant risk since the client may lack necessary updates or features that are critical for maintaining a stable connection and ensuring security. An outdated client version could also lead to compatibility issues with the Tanium server itself, potentially causing the client to fail in reporting or receiving data correctly.

These factors highlight the importance of ensuring that each Tanium Client is up-to-date and has adequate resources allocated to function as intended within the network.
