Our primary tool for asset inventory is Qualys CyberSecurity Asset Management, which our software asset management team also utilizes to check our software library. We deploy Qualys Cloud agents as passive sensors to gain comprehensive asset visibility and identify gaps in policy agent coverage. Additionally, we are collaborating with our cyber defense center team to enhance external service management.

Currently, I use Qualys CSAM for asset management. It allows me to search for assets and manage them by implementing license management, asset inventory discovery, and ensuring that no device goes unmanaged.
I am working as a senior security analyst. I provide enterprise vulnerability management solutions. CyberSecurity Asset Management helps us categorize all the assets and products. We can see the current software assets and the software or product lifecycle. We can see details about the end-of-life or the end-of-support in CyberSecurity Asset Management. We create customized tags for the assets. In my environment, there are IT servers and OT servers, so we need to customize the tags based on the servers. We can deep dive into asset inventory and check the external attack surface. We do attack surface management for the servers that are external or public-facing servers. We need deep investigations of assets to see if there is any vulnerability or suspicious activity in the server. For that purpose, I utilize the Qualys CSAM module.
Qualys Cybersecurity Asset Management helps us manage our technical debt by identifying end-of-life and end-of-service software and hardware within our IT infrastructure. Qualys CSAM is primarily a cloud-based solution. The only optional on-premise component is a passive sensor that monitors network traffic at our egress point. This sensor collects data and sends it to the Qualys Cloud interface for analysis, but it's not essential for using CSAM.
