Asset Register: Central Directory for Secure ISMS Asset Management

Asset Register – Centralized Directory of Information Assets for Secure ISMS Management

With TRIGovernance, connect and safeguard your essential information assets. The TRIGovernance Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) tool centrally documents all assets relevant to your Information Security Management System (ISMS), assesses their protection needs, and maps dependencies across processes, applications, and personnel.

Connect Your Information Assets

Critical information assets require robust protection. Beyond hardware, software, networks, and organizational units, this includes safeguarding your business processes, personal data, strategic information, prototypes, samples, and products. The protection needs for your data, objects, and processes cover all potential data loss risks and are assigned to each information asset within our portal. Dependencies are automatically propagated: if a document is rated with a ``high`` protection need, the server hosting it, the room containing the server, and the building housing that room will inherit the same classification.

In our portal, this protection need inheritance is fully automated, simplifying complexity for the user. The asset register is securely versioned, fully digitized, and accessible from anywhere, with filterable and reportable options to enhance visibility and awareness of your information assets. TRIGovernance comprehensively documents all ISMS-relevant information assets, assesses their protection needs, and records dependencies, from processes to personnel. Additional documents, contracts, and audit results are linked to information assets, providing a complete view. TRIGovernance also enables you to associate risks, create action plans, and centrally manage KPI evaluations and reporting, providing an organized overview and unified management of all information assets in one centralized location.

Connect your information assets

Your critical information needs protection. Besides hardware, software, networks, organizational units, company buildings, and personnel, your business processes, personal data, strategic information, prototypes, samples, and products also require safeguarding. The protection needs of your data, objects, and processes encompass all risks of data loss and are assigned to an information asset within the portal, accounting for dependencies and propagating accordingly. For example, if a document is classified as having ``high`` protection needs, the server hosting the document, the room where the server is located, and the building housing the room will all inherit the same classification.

This protection need inheritance is fully automated in our portal, reducing complexity for the user. The asset register in the portal is versioned, securely digitized, accessible from anywhere, and presented in a filterable and reportable format. This creates awareness of your information assets. The TRIGovernance Governance, Risk, and Compliance tool documents all information assets relevant to the ISMS, determines their protection needs, and records dependencies such as processes, applications, and personnel. Documents, contracts, and documentation are also linked to information assets, with audit results stored alongside them. TRIGovernance allows you to associate existing risks with assets and generate action overviews. KPI evaluations and reporting are centrally managed, giving you a comprehensive overview and a unified management of all information assets in one place.
