Managing assets

In the Assets section of the KUMA web interface, you can view and edit information about known assets and their categories. Assets can be imported from Kaspersky Security Center and from MaxPatrol reports.

The asset categories tree is displayed in the left part of the Assets section. You can browse the tree, and expand or collapse nodes. When a node is selected, the assets belonging to that node category are displayed in the right part of the window.

When an asset is selected, the right side of the window shows the Asset details area displaying the following asset parameters:

• Name—asset name. Assets imported from Kaspersky Security Center retain their Kaspersky Security Center names.
• Tenant name—name of the tenant that owns the asset.
• Created—date and time when the asset was added to KUMA.
• Updated—date and time when the asset information was modified.
• Owner—owner of the asset, if provided.
• IP address—IP address of the asset, if provided.

  If there are several assets with identical IP addresses in KUMA, the asset that was added the latest is returned in all cases when assets are searched by IP address. If assets with identical IP addresses can coexist in your organization's network, plan accordingly and use additional attributes to identify the assets. For example, this may become important during correlation.

• FQDN—Fully Qualified Domain Name of the asset, if provided.
• MAC address—MAC address of the asset, if provided.
• Operating system—operating system of the asset.
• Related alerts—alerts associated with the asset (if any).

  To view the list of alerts related to an asset, click the Find in Alerts link. The Alerts tab opens with the search expression set to filter all assets with the corresponding asset ID.

• Categories—categories associated with the asset (if any).
• Vulnerabilities—vulnerabilities of the asset, if provided. This information is available only for the assets that were imported from Kaspersky Security Center.

  You can learn more about the vulnerability by clicking the icon, which opens the Kaspersky Threats portal. You can also update the vulnerabilities list by clicking the Update link and requesting updated information from Kaspersky Security Center.

• Software info—if the asset software parameters are provided, they are displayed in this section.
• Hardware info—if the asset hardware parameters are provided, they are displayed in this section.
• Agent ID—identifier of the KUMA agent installed on the asset.
• Last connection time with KSC—if the asset was imported from Kaspersky Security Center, this section displays the time of the last connection with Kaspersky Security Center.

You can select the check boxes next to assets and then assign them to a category by using the Link to category button.

Do not assign the Categorized assets category to assets.
