Assets Pages

The following features were added to all assets pages:

Data Refinement
Data refinement now supports 'earlier than' and 'later than' fields for versions.

Software Management Module New Features and Enhancements

The following new features and enhancements were added to the Software Management Module:

Software Approval List

New Software Approval lists enable users to manage a list of Software categorized into Approved/Not-approved. As software is detected it is automatically assigned the Approved/Not-approved status on the Software Page. It is then possible to see this information in queries, charts, etc. and take appropriate action if required. The** Software List** can be created and updated either by:

• Importing a CSV file that contains a list of 'Software' and 'Approval Status'.
• Manually adding Software using the Add Software button.
• Updating the 'Approval Status' field in the Software page using Custom Fields, which is then synchronized with the Approval List.

SaaS Management New Features and Enhancements

Affiliated Users Enrichment Field
A New 'Affiliated Users' enrichment field was added to the SaaS Applications Asset page. This field counts all the users affiliated with a given SaaS application, including users coming from all available sources: the application’s adapter, user extensions, or DNS records.

Asset Graph New Features and Enhancements

Create Custom Groups using Multi-Select

Custom Groups using Multi-Select allows users to select multiple asset icons and create custom asset groups. This helps reduce the clutter in their graph, and custom groups can be acted on as a single entity. For example:
Users can select all the user nodes that belong to the same department and group them together. Then, they can Filter, Enforce, Segment, or explore further connections to the group with just a few clicks.

Organize the Graph with Layouts

Users can choose between organic or hierarchical representations for personalized data visualization. Tailor the graph layout to match the logic of the node relationships, optimizing clarity and understanding. This enhances user control, improves visual representation, and boosts data comprehension by offering flexible graph layouts catering to individual preferences and specific use cases.

New Asset Graph Node Design and Color Scheme

The Asset Graph nodes have been redesigned and given a new modern color scheme.

Expand by Single Asset's Adapter Connections

The ability was added to segment a single asset node to view the node's adapter connections. Then, one or more of the connections can be explored.

Findings Center New Features and Enhancements

The Alert drawer now displays under the Count 1 and Count 2 columns the number of assets that were compared in the Query comparison or Query change over time condition that triggered the alert.

Adapter Pages and Adapter Interface New Features and Enhancements

The following updates were made to the common functionality across all adapters:

Adapters Page Redesign

A new Adapter Catalog page now presents adapters as a tile view by default. Tiles show adapter name, description and connection status. In addition, supported assets for each adapter are now displayed. Configured adapters are now always shown at the top of the tile view/table.
Adapter Profile page was redesigned. Links for advanced settings are now at the left side of the profile page. A new Search was added to the Profile side panel to easily search for any advanced adapter setting, whether general, or specific for that adapter.
