App navigation: Risk → Asset
The Asset module maintains an inventory of all organizational assets that need to be protected – systems, applications, data stores, hardware, and other resources. Assets are the foundation of the ATVEC risk methodology used in the Risk Register.

Navigate to Risk → Asset. The Asset Inventory screen shows an Asset Summary panel (Total Assets, By Status – Not Ready, Active, Decommissioned – and Assignment Summary) alongside an inventory grid with columns: AssetId, Status, Assigned To, Assigned On, Returned On, Purchased On, Purchase Price.

Linking Assets to Risks #
Once created, assets can be linked to Risk Register entries via the ATVEC Mapping step in the Create Risk wizard (Risk → Risk Register → + → Step 2). This provides traceability from the formal risk back to the specific asset at risk.
