Unknown assets explained with Asset Attribution Visualization

[Asset Attribution Visualization]

Now, every asset in your inventory comes with a clear chain of ownership – so your team can stop investigating where an asset came from and start acting on what to do about it.

Every asset in your inventory represents potential exposure. But when your team can't immediately explain where an asset came from, investigation eats into the time you should be spending on remediation and creates friction when reporting to stakeholders.

With this update, users can move directly to taking action rather than having to investigate how the asset is connected to their organization, making every discovery actionable and supported by attribution evidence.

Key benefits

  • Understand any asset's origin instantly, without manual investigation
  • Free up analyst time for remediation, not root-cause detective work
  • Demonstrate asset ownership with exportable attribution visuals
