What is Cloud Asset Inventory?
A cloud asset inventory is an automated system that tracks and monitors all of the assets that an organization keeps in its cloud environment, including hardware, software, and services.
What are the Benefits of a Cloud Asset Inventory?
A cloud asset inventory is used to maintain an up-to-date list of all assets that are available and deployed in the cloud, as well as their associated configuration and usage information. This information can be used to help organizations better manage and secure their cloud-based resources.

Manually tracking cloud asset inventories requires an average of 86 hours of labor — up to 16 times a year — for a total of 1,376 hours. Even then, changes that happen between each review are not updated in real time, leaving an organization with unknown gaps in security.
The Axonius asset inventory platform eliminates the manual approach, providing comprehensive asset visibility from all data sources.
