Who determines what data gets processed by the Tanium Cloud?

The customer plays a pivotal role in determining what data gets processed by the Tanium Cloud. This is primarily because customers have specific needs and requirements that guide the data processing parameters according to their organizational goals, compliance standards, and security policies. They are in control of the data sources they choose to integrate with Tanium Cloud and can specify which data is relevant to their operations.

In addition, the customers are involved in setting configurations, managing data retention policies, and defining the kinds of analyses they wish to perform on their data. This level of control ensures that the processing aligns with their organizational objectives and helps in achieving desired insights through Tanium's capabilities.

While partners or Tanium provide the platform and technical expertise, their role is more about facilitating the process rather than making decisions on the specific data to be processed. Data analysts may help interpret and analyze the data once it is processed, and end users typically consume the data outputs but do not have direct influence on what gets processed in the cloud environment.
