What is IT Asset Discovery?

Why Do You Need IT Asset Discovery?

In our era of rapid digital expansion, keeping track of devices is downright impossible without accurate IT asset discovery. IT Asset discovery gives you a much-needed overview of all assets connected to your network and helps you manage them remotely. Also, IT asset discovery software automates a lot of manual work, which saves you valuable time. It improves your network's security significantly as it can be used to set up a continuous watch over your network to detect threats like rogue devices or to perform deep scans to find hidden vulnerabilities.
