At which intervals is data sent from Tanium Cloud to the client?

Data from Tanium Cloud to the client is sent during specific triggers, notably during instances such as client restarts and endpoint reboots to ensure the client has the most current information. Additionally, there is a scheduled transmission of data from Tanium Cloud to the client at a 4-hour interval. This regular interval allows for timely updates and ensures that the client has access to the latest configuration and policy changes implemented in the Tanium Cloud environment.

The combination of these triggers helps to maintain the connectivity and operational integrity of the Tanium deployment, allowing the client to function effectively with up-to-date data for security and management purposes. The choice indicating a 4-hour interval highlights the structured nature of Tanium’s data delivery process, ensuring that updates are not only on-demand or arbitrary but are instead part of a systematic schedule that balances the need for current information with network efficiency.
