Consult with the Tanium System Administrator to determine the file-level encryption software used on the Tanium Server.
Review the settings for the file-level encryption software.

If exclusions do not exist, this is a finding.
Implement excluding policies within the file-level encryption software solution to exclude encryption of the Tanium Server program files.
