Creating and Managing Asset Groups:

1. Group Formation:

   • Users can select any number of assets to form new groups.

   • Once a group is created, define criteria for asset assignment, like hostname or IP address.

2. Automatic Asset Sorting:

   • Based on the defined settings, the Platform automatically categorizes assets into groups when new results are imported.

   • Each group can have its own unique settings, offering flexibility in how inventories are organized. See https://rootshellsecurity.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PK/pages/1324974121 for the different options.

3. Monitoring and Insights:

   • The Platform facilitates easy monitoring of groups with insights on SLA compliance and overall severity scores, based on the highest-rated issue within each group.

Asset Grouping Types:

• Ungrouped Assets: These are assets that arrive organically into the Platform and are reported as individual instances.

• Grouped Assets: Assets that are automatically placed into logical groupings defined by the user.

Available Metrics for Grouping:

• Compliance Ratings: Assess compliance statuses for groups, such as a PCI environment within an organization.

• Severity Score/Rating: Obtain the highest severity score for an asset group, calculated based on the weakest link/asset weighting.

• Tagging Capabilities: Enhance reporting granularity by tagging assets and asset groups.

Enhanced Asset Organization:

Asset Grouping on the Platform simplifies the task of managing large and diverse asset inventories, allowing for effective monitoring, compliance tracking, and prioritization of cybersecurity efforts.
