IT Asset Inventory: Hardware & Software Tracking

Anexet inventories every hardware component and installed application across your workstations, laptops, and servers — including serial numbers, CPU/RAM/disk details, attached peripherals, and software versions. The full asset picture is visible in the Client Console. Hardware and software inventory is available in the Premium plan. Anexet is deployed on-premise; the vendor has no access to your data.

Every device in your network — accounted for

IT auditors and security teams share the same problem: they cannot protect what they cannot see.

Shadow hardware — a personal laptop plugged into an office switch, an unregistered workstation running unlicensed software, a server added without a change ticket — sits outside every policy, every patch cycle, and every compliance checklist until something goes wrong.

Anexet Inventory builds a live asset register automatically. The agent running on each workstation reports its full hardware bill of materials — mainboard, CPU, RAM, storage, PSU, monitors, keyboards, network adapters, and portable devices — along with every installed application and its version. No spreadsheet. No manual audit walk. No gap between what IT thinks is there and what is actually connected.

The same view that gives IT-operations teams their CMDB baseline gives IT-security teams a compliance lens: which devices match the approved configuration, which do not, and which appeared on the network without authorization. Because everything runs on-premise inside your own perimeter, asset data never leaves the organization.

Why it matters

  • Complete asset visibility

    Every managed workstation, laptop, and server reports its full hardware bill of materials and software list — automatically, without a manual audit.

  • Security and compliance lens

    See which devices match the approved configuration, which do not, and which appeared without authorization — all from a single console view.

  • On-premise, no vendor access

    Asset data, serial numbers, and employee records stay inside your own infrastructure. The vendor has no access to any of it.

Full Asset Coverage — Hardware, Software & Network

All inventory capabilities are available in the Premium plan.

Hardware inventory

  • Workstation hardware profile

    Premium

    Full hardware bill of materials per device: manufacturer, model, and serial numbers for each component — mainboard, CPU, RAM, storage, and PSU.

  • Processor (CPU) details

    Premium

    CPU model, core count, and clock speed recorded per device.

  • Memory (RAM)

    Premium

    Total RAM capacity and slot configuration per workstation.

  • Storage drives

    Premium

    Each drive by type (HDD/SSD/NVMe), capacity, and serial number.

  • Power supply unit (PSU)

    Premium

    PSU model and serial number where reported by the operating system.

Peripherals & network adapters

  • Monitors

    Premium

    Manufacturer, model, serial number, and connection type for each attached monitor.

  • Multimedia devices

    Premium

    Webcams, headsets, and microphones attached to the workstation at the time of scan.

  • Keyboards & pointing devices

    Premium

    Input peripherals recorded per device.

  • Network adapters

    Premium

    Wired and Wi-Fi network cards identified per workstation.

  • Portable devices

    Premium

    USB storage, phones, and other connected peripherals recorded at the time of scan.

Software, resource load & location

  • Installed software inventory

    Premium

    Full list of installed applications per workstation — version numbers, installation dates, system-level and user-level installs. Searchable and filterable across all endpoints.

  • Resource-load monitoring

    Premium

    Real-time and historical readings of CPU utilization, RAM usage, and disk load per workstation — visible in each device's asset card.

  • Office and device map

    Premium

    Visual floor-plan map showing device placement across office locations, with a direct link to the audio/video monitoring view for each workstation.

  • Workstation geolocation

    Premium

    Each device is associated with an expected location; the map view highlights deviations and raises alerts — useful for tracking laptops used by remote or field employees.

  • Wi-Fi risk monitoring

    Premium

    Detected Wi-Fi networks are recorded and classified by risk tier — office, home, or unsafe — and visualised across the fleet so security teams can spot risky connections early.

All inventory features require the Premium plan. Coverage of portable devices and PSU serial numbers depends on what the endpoint operating system exposes. Exact coverage is confirmed during the demo.

What Anexet Captures on the Endpoint

The Anexet endpoint agent collects the full hardware bill of materials, installed software list, resource-load readings, and network data at configurable intervals — all without deploying a separate inventory agent. Because the same agent already handles DLP and activity monitoring, inventory data arrives alongside security events in a single unified console.

Everything is stored inside your own infrastructure. Scinero Software Limited operates entirely on-premise and has no access to your hardware profiles, software lists, employee records, or any other data collected by Anexet.

How IT Asset Inventory Works

Four steps from an endpoint scan to a live, alerting asset register.

The Anexet endpoint agent — already installed for DLP and activity monitoring — collects hardware and software data at configurable intervals. No separate inventory agent is needed.

1

Asset records are forwarded to the Inventory Server component (part of the Premium deployment), which aggregates, deduplicates, and stores hardware profiles, software lists, resource readings, and network data inside your own infrastructure.

2

The Client Console presents a Hardware & Software section with individual device cards, filterable asset tables, the office map, and the geolocation view. Security policies can reference asset data — for example, alerting when a device deviates from its approved configuration.

3

When an active device does not match the approved configuration, when a new unregistered device appears, when a workstation becomes inoperative, or when a device is detected outside its expected location, the system raises an alert so IT and security staff can act without waiting for a periodic manual audit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Anexet's hardware and software inventory module.

What is IT asset inventory software?

IT asset inventory software automatically discovers and records the hardware components and installed applications on every managed workstation, laptop, and server in your network. Anexet does this on-premise via its endpoint agent, storing the full asset register — including serial numbers, peripherals, and software versions — inside your own infrastructure, without any data leaving your organization.

Yes. Anexet is deployed entirely on-premise inside your own infrastructure. The vendor, Scinero Software Limited, has no access to your asset data, employee records, or any other information collected by the system.

No. Anexet is deployed on-premise; the vendor has no access to your data.

Hardware and software inventory is available in the Premium plan only. Standard and Advanced plans include DLP and employee activity monitoring, but not the Inventory module.

Anexet inventories PCs, laptops, and servers, plus attached peripherals: monitors, multimedia devices, keyboards, network adapters, and portable devices. Hardware records include serial numbers for components such as CPU, RAM, storage, and PSU where the operating system exposes them.

Yes. The geolocation feature associates each managed device with an expected location. The console map highlights any device that deviates from that location and can raise an alert — useful for tracking laptops used by remote or field employees, or identifying equipment that has been moved without authorization.

Yes. Anexet monitors detected Wi-Fi networks on each workstation and classifies them as office, home, or unsafe. Security teams can see which employees are connected to public or unknown networks and act before sensitive data is exposed.

Anexet alerts when an active device does not match the approved configuration and when previously unseen devices appear on endpoints. For dedicated rogue/unauthorized-device detection across the network, see the related page on unauthorized device detection.
