Tanium & Trellix EPO - Linux Installation

Installation Scripts: 

The scripts are hosted on our Windows Software deployment share:

//phy-deploy.blue.cam.ac.uk/Software/

 You will need cifs-utils to mount the share with cifs and use your University CRSid and password, for example: 

mount.cifs -o username=<CRSid> //phy-deploy.blue.cam.ac.uk/Software/ /path/to/mountfolder 

(you will also need sudo or root access to mount)

 Here are the two scripts that need to be run to install Tanium (endpoint monitoring) and Trellix (antivirus): 

//phy-deploy.blue.cam.ac.uk/Software/Tanium/inst-phy-desktop-linux-bundle/phy_desktop_linux_install.sh

//phy-deploy.blue.cam.ac.uk/Software/Trellix/TrellixSmartInstall.sh

NB: The Trellix Linux install script needs to be run as root (or using sudo). On some distros running the Trellix script has to be done outside the mounted directory. 

For Raspberry Pis we recommend running Tanium in ‘lowresource’ mode, which you can do with the following command:

echo "lowresource" >> /opt/Tanium/TaniumClient/Tools/CustomTags.txt
