Asset Intelligence

Asset Intelligence: a governed asset register connected to your GRC record

Know what you run, who is accountable for it and what it supports. OrviQ reconciles what your discovery sources report into one governed register, then connects each asset to the business services, risks, controls and evidence that depend on it.

From a source signal to a governed record
A source reports a deviceEach feed keeps its own record and provenance
Ambiguity goes to reviewUncertain matches wait in a queue for a person to decide
A reviewer decides, with a reasonDecisions are attributed and can be reversed
An owner accepts accountabilityOwnership is accepted by the person and attested periodically
Dependencies are recordedThe asset is tied to the business services that rely on it

Asset Intelligence Capabilities

Asset truth that stays explainable

Asset Intelligence is part of the OrviQ platform, built on the same governed data model as the rest of the GRC record.

A governed registry with real owners

One register for technology and infrastructure, with a stable business reference, type, environment, criticality and data classification. Named owner and custodian roles are accepted by the person and attested periodically.

Reconciled discovery sources

Feeds from sources such as CMDBs, vulnerability scanners and endpoint tooling keep their own provenance. Strong matches link on corroborated evidence, and the rest go to a review queue where a person decides.

Change governance

Observed changes to an asset are raised as explainable signals for review on the asset itself. Accepting or rejecting a change is a recorded human decision.

Dependencies and business impact

Relate assets to each other and to the business services they support, so the impact of an asset on a critical service can be traced rather than guessed.

Coverage baselines and exceptions

Set expected security-tool coverage by asset class, environment and criticality, see explained gaps, and manage time-boxed exceptions that need independent approval and expire.

Linked to GRC, by review

Associate assets with existing risks, controls, requirements, findings, evidence and action plans. Candidate links are reviewed before they count, with an immutable history.

Honest by design

What Asset Intelligence does not do

The asset register is evidence for governance decisions. It is not the decision.

Observed is not approved

What a source reports and what the organisation has approved are held separately, with the difference shown rather than overwritten.

No automatic compliance conclusions

Asset data does not decide control effectiveness, risk or compliance on its own. People make those determinations through the normal governed workflows.

Unknown stays unknown

Where coverage or ownership is not known, OrviQ reports it as unknown instead of assuming it is healthy.
