Tanium Connect Version 5.9.65

Release Date: November 16, 2021

Update Date: March 6, 2023

Important

  • For on-premises environments, if you want to upgrade to latest available version, for the best results:
  1. Upgrade to Connect 5.13.391 if your environment is below that version.
  2. Verify that your environment properly updated. Log in to the Tanium Console as a Platform Administrator, then navigate to the Connect Overview page. If the upgrade to Connect 5.13.391 had any problem, a banner appears. If the upgrade completed without issue, no banner appears.
  3. Upgrade to the current Connect version


Enhancements

  • When creating or modifying a connection, the destination configuration enables cloning or reuse of existing destinations.
  • The HTTP destination now supports IBM Cloud IAM API keys, enabling customers to send data to IBM Security and Compliance Cloud.

Notable Changes

  • The Connect API is updated to support IBM Cloud IAM - API Key authentication. If you make a POST request to the /v1/destinations/https route, the useAuthentication optional parameter is now a string data type instead of a boolean data type. The default value is none. Allowed values are none (no authentication used), basic (Basic authentication) and oauth2ibm (IBM Cloud IAM - API Key authentication).
    • If you previously made a POST request to this route with "useAuthentication" : "false" in the request body, or did not define useAuthentication, update the name-value pair to "useAuthentication" : "none" to continue using no authentication.
    • If you previously made a POST request to this route with "useAuthentication" : "true" in the request body, update the name-value pair to "useAuthentication" : "basic" to continue using basic authentication. 
    • If you want to make a POST request to this route using IBM Cloud IAM - API Key authentication, include the "useAuthentication" : "oauth2ibm" name-value pair in your request body to use IBM Cloud IAM - API Key authentication. 

Resolved Issues

  • Fixed an issue where selecting a parameterized sensor with the Tanium Data Service source caused connections to not resolve.
  • Fixed out-of-memory errors for certain email connections.
  • Increased the stall detection for connections from 20 minutes to 60 minutes.
