Results lists in Inventory Browse have two columns that persist as you scroll across other columns. Endpoint identifies the object from the search or browse results, and # identifies the number of components that make up the object. Depending on which Inventory window you are in, each inventory item displays some or all of the following properties:

Asset Model

Identifies the asset model for the associated data owner.

Classification

Specifies how the inventory item is classified. The predefined list of values identifies the type of inventory item object and these predefined values are used by both the Device and Classification properties. For more information about the predefined values, see the Device property.

Cyber Asset

Specifies whether this object is a collection of inventory items that independently perform a defined function. An inventory component that connects to a network and can function independently, such as a computer or system, is a Cyber Asset. This value can be Yes or No.

Descriptor

Provides additional information that may be needed for the inventory item.

Device

Specifies from what object the inventory item is derived. The following predefined list of values identifies the type of inventory item object and these predefined values are used by both the Device and Classification properties:

  • PC

  • Server Machine

  • Interface Station

  • Printer

  • Scanner

  • Firewall

  • Router

  • Switch

  • Memory

  • Networked Device

  • Drive

  • Operating System

  • OS Patch

  • Software

  • Antivirus

  • Controller Card

  • IO Card

  • Communication Card

  • Wireless IO Card

  • Motherboard

  • Control System

  • Communication Module

  • Card

Integrity Asset

Specifies the name of the data owner (asset) for the system that the inventory data comes from. For example, an inventory item is associated with an individual Integrity data owner (asset), such as HW_EPKS. You can create a filter to view only the inventory items associated with the HW_EPKS data owner.

Integrity OUID

Specifies the unique number that identifies the inventory item object.

Manufacturer

Specifies the name of the manufacturer as identified by the asset model for the proprietary system. For a non-proprietary system, this value is derived from the attribute of the object.

Model Number

Specifies the model number associated with the overall inventory item. If multiple model numbers exist for components of the inventory item, and those numbers are essential for logging, that value is considered an additional inventory item. If an item does not have a model number, this value is not required as long as there is a Serial Number or Version Number value.

Name

Specifies the name of the inventory item object.

Product

Specifies the object type the inventory item represents, such as LCN, GUS, or NIM. For non-proprietary systems, this value could be Server, Video card, Hard Drive, Physical Port, or OS Patch.

Serial Number

Specifies the serial number associated with the overall inventory item. If multiple serial numbers exist for components of the inventory item and those numbers are essential for logging, that value is considered an additional inventory item. If an item does not have a serial number, this value is not required as long as there is a Model Number or Version Number value.

Type

Specifies the classification of the type of Version Number, Model Number, or Serial Number value, such as HW/FW/SW (hardware/firmware/software).

Version Number

Specifies the version number associated with the overall inventory item. If multiple version numbers exist for components of the inventory item and those numbers are essential for logging, that value is considered an additional inventory item. The version number can be combined with the revision number, since this field is a text field. This field should use a common naming nomenclature so it can ensure consistent naming. For items that have a revision, the revision is concatenated with the version, such as version_number Revision revision_number.

Other properties

Various other properties specify the details about the object, such as amount of memory or number of processors contained in the object.
