TANIUM CERTIFIED OPERATOR EXAM
PRACTICE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
VERIFIED 2025/2026.
Tanium Client - ANS Responsible for collecting and returning data to the Tanium Server.
Tanium Ask - ANS To ask real-time questions to endpoints.
Tanium Action - ANS Used to install or uninstall software on endpoints.
Tanium Client Communication - ANS Communicates with the Tanium Server through secure
TCP ports.
Troubleshooting (Endpoint Not Responding) - ANS Check network connectivity and the status
of the Tanium Client on the endpoint.
Tanium Client Status Query - ANS To verify if Tanium Client is installed and running on
endpoints.
Tanium Sensors - ANS Valid sensors include Memory Usage and Operating System.
No Data Error - ANS Most likely caused by the sensor not being deployed to those endpoints.

, Tanium Trends - ANS Feature that allows tracking historical data over time.
Tanium Troubleshooting (Client Failed) - ANS Check if the endpoint has Tanium Client
installed and if it has the correct version.
Tanium Patch - ANS Module that allows operators to manage and deploy patches.
Action Fails (Software Update) - ANS First, verify the action's log for errors.
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) - ANS Restricts access to features and data based on
operator roles.
Query Timeout Causes - ANS Multiple factors can cause a query to timeout.
High latency between the Tanium Server and endpoints - ANS A delay in communication that
can affect query performance.
A query requesting data from a single endpoint - ANS A specific request made to retrieve
information from one endpoint.
A query with too many sensors or results - ANS A complex query that may lead to
performance issues due to excessive data retrieval.
Insufficient permissions for the operator - ANS A lack of necessary access rights that prevents
an operator from executing certain actions.
Action History - ANS A feature in Tanium that helps track the status and results of deployed
actions.
