Inventory and Control of Enterprise Assets
Hardware Enterprise Assets focuses on the management and control of all hardware devices within an organization. This includes maintaining an inventory of all devices, tracking their location, and ensuring that they meet security standards. The goal is to have a clear understanding of the organization’s hardware landscape to mitigate potential security risks.
Active Device Discovery System:
