Integrity Monitor File Events Overview: Included columns for each event are process path, file path, user, change type, date, hour, minute group, detail. The Integrity Monitor Current Results page uses this sensor. Once you have deployed a monitor, you can view resulting events by selecting that monitor and clicking Current Results.
Using the minute group instead of the full event time stamp allows the events to be grouped.
Integrity Monitor File Events Details: Included columns for each event are time stamp, process path, file path, user, change type, detail, watchlists. This sensor is available to use in Saved Questions in Tanium™ Connect.
When an endpoint has no resulting events, the event sensors will display No integrity violations found.
If [no results] is displayed, there is an error on the endpoint. Ask a question with the Integrity Monitor Endpoint Tools Status sensor in Interact to identify the error. See Tanium Interact User Guide: Asking questions for more information. See Reference: Endpoint monitoring status errors for help in resolving the error.
When viewing the current events for a monitor, you can create a rule from an event by selecting that event and clicking Learn Event.
On the Create Rule page, the Rule Criteria fields will be pre-populated with criteria from the event you selected.
Complete the other necessary fields and click Create.
To learn more about rules, see Working with rules.
Use labels to annotate alarms as you review results to mark action that needs to be taken on an event.
The labels Important and Suspicious are configured to notify Connect. You will see the Connect icon next to these labels.
In the results table for a monitor, select one or more events, click Label and assign labels to these events that will appear in the Labels column.
Integrity Monitor provides shortcuts to labels using the number keys, assuming you have less than 10 labels. Each number corresponds to the order of the labels as they are listed across. For example, if Expected is the third label across in the list, then, if you hit the 3 key with a row selected, that row will automatically be labeled Expected. Hitting the 3 key again, while the row is selected and once it is labeled, will remove the Expected label.
Use rules to enable auto-labeling and get notified of events of concern. See Working with rules.
To remove a label from an event, simply follow the steps to apply the same label to that event. Select the event and then select the label from the Label drop-down list.
Click Settings at the top right of the Integrity Monitor home page.
Click Edit Default Labels to change the label Name, Color, or Description. You can also specify whether or not that label is included in the results information sent by Connect. Any changes to default labels will affect every monitor.
If you modify default labels, you will not be able to return to the default definitions.
Click Edit Custom Labels next to a monitor to change the labels just for that monitor. Use Delete to delete any unnecessary labels.
Select the event you want to label.
From the Label drop-down menu, select Create Label.
In the Create Label window, provide a Name for the label, specify a Color, and add an optional Description. Select Notify Connect if you want events with this label included in results information sent to Connect.
You can add notes to labeled events to provide additional information, such as action being taken.
On the monitor page, select the event(s) in the results table to which you want to apply the label.
From the Label drop-down menu, select Label with Note.
In the Label with Note window, select the label you want to apply from the Label drop-down menu.
Once a label with a note is applied to an event, a note icon appears with the label. You can mouse over the icon to see the note.
Labels with notes are applied individually to selected events. If you apply a label to an event after a note is applied to that label, that note will not automatically appear for that event.
To edit a note or remove it from a label, modify the Note field in the Label with Note window to edit it or clear the Note field to remove the note.
Click Label History to view historical records of how events have been labeled.
Expand an event to see label details and any notes.
Select one or more labels and click Manage Note to add or edit a note.
Enter a new note or edit a note in the Manage Note window and click Save.
Filter labeled events by expanding Filter Results at the top of results grid and specifying the Select filter field, Select operator, and variable.
You can narrow results even further by adding additional filters. To do this, click to add a row or a group and use the same fields. Click Search once you are done adding filters.
Integrity Monitor deletes labeled events from the label history after 30 days.
Integrity Monitor will store up to 1 million labeled events. When you exceed 1 million labeled events, Integrity Monitor deletes the oldest labeled events to bring the total count back down to 1 million. Labeled events are kept for at least 72 hours after they are created, regardless of whether the total count is greater than 1 million in that time period.
If reporting is enabled for a monitor and you exceed 1 million labeled events before the report is scheduled to run, Integrity Monitor will delete the oldest labeled events to bring the total count back down to 1 million. A new report will be created that includes events since the last report and any events that have been deleted.
On the monitor page, click Manage Labels. This will take you to the Settings page. Follow the steps in Customize labels to edit labels.
Refer to the Tanium Interact User Guide for more information on More, Drill Down, and Deploy Action functions.
From the Integrity Monitor home page or the Monitors page, either Create a New Monitor or select an existing monitor.
If you want to stop reporting at any time for a specific monitor, click Disable reporting for this monitor on the right side of the page.
To see reports for a monitor, select the monitor and click the Reports tab. Reports are listed showing the most recent one first. A report will show all label events for the defined weekly report interval. Columns in the report for a monitor match the label history for that monitor.
The report will show labels that were created during the time interval that the report covers, so if an event occurred outside that time range, but was labeled within the time range, it will show up in the report. A report could cover more or less than 7 days of labels if you change the report interval. Integrity Monitor reports in this manner to prevent duplication or gaps in the reports.
Example 1: Reports run on Sunday at midnight. On Tuesday, you change the report to run on Wednesday at midnight. The first report on Wednesday will cover 3 days.
Example 2: Reports run on Sunday at midnight. On Thursday, you change the report to run on Wednesday at midnight. The first report on Wednesday will cover 10 days.

The connection is created with the events enabled for that monitor as the source, and results are sent to a CSV file using the file destination via Connect.
Click Send Data Now. A check mark will appear in the column to confirm that an alarm is being sent via Connect.
Under Background Process Settings, click Enable to send labeled events to Connect.
Adjust the Labeled Event Sync Interval to define a regular time interval that Integrity Monitor sends labeled results to Connect and that Connect sends out these labeled results. The default value is 30 minutes.
