Asset inventory is time-consuming and labour-intensive. Cetbix Asset Inventory helps reduce the complexity of asset management, especially in information technology (IT) inventory, and shows how an asset inventory system can provide benefits.

Cetbix offers a comprehensive Asset & Data Inventory Management system as part of its Information Security Management System (ISMS). This feature helps organizations create and maintain a detailed inventory of their IT and OT assets, as well as their data.

Key Features

  • 360° Data Inventory: Enables accurate assessment of BI roadmap and implementation strategies[1].
  • AI-Enhanced Inventorization: Utilizes AI to enhance comprehensive internal interviews for asset identification[1].
  • Information Labeling: Provides procedures for labeling information according to the organization's classification scheme[1].
  • Processing Activities Record: Maintains records of all internal processing activities, crucial for compliance[1].

Advantages

  • Prioritization: Helps organizations prioritize efforts, resources, and risk assessments[1].
  • Comprehensive Coverage: Includes both personal and general data[1].
  • Efficiency: Addresses challenges of manual inventory creation, which can be time-consuming and error-prone[1].

Asset Classification Process

The Cetbix inventory system allows for detailed asset classification, including:

  • Repository information (name, description, owner, location, access)
  • Data type details
  • Personal Information ID
  • Information Confidentiality Classification Scheme
  • Handling procedures
  • Sensitivity level
  • Retention period
  • Data utilization procedures
  • Data backup information
  • Storage media management
  • Risk register
  • Confidentiality level
  • Risk acceptance methodology

By providing these features, Cetbix's Asset & Data Inventory Management system enables organizations to maintain a comprehensive and up-to-date inventory of their assets and data, crucial for effective information security management and compliance.

How Cetbix inventory simplify data integration

Cetbix inventory simplifies data integration through several key features and approaches:

Comprehensive 360° Data Inventory

Cetbix enables organizations to create a complete 360° data inventory, which allows for accurate assessment of BI roadmaps and implementation strategies. This comprehensive approach helps overcome challenges associated with data silos and fragmented information across departments.

AI-Enhanced Inventorization

The system utilizes AI to enhance the process of comprehensive internal interviews for asset identification. This AI-driven approach streamlines the often time-consuming and error-prone task of manual inventory creation.

Unified Data Management

Cetbix inventory covers both personal and general data, allowing organizations to create a unified data inventory. This consolidation helps prioritize efforts, resources, and risk assessments more effectively.

Automated Processing Activities Record

The system maintains automated records of all internal processing activities, which is crucial for compliance and can be made available to supervisory authorities upon request.

Streamlined Classification Process

Cetbix offers a detailed asset classification process that includes repository information, data type details, confidentiality levels, and risk registers1. This structured approach simplifies the organization and management of diverse data assets.

By providing these features, Cetbix inventory enables organizations to integrate their data more efficiently, reducing the complexity and time required for comprehensive data management and compliance.

How Cetbix inventory manage data classification

Cetbix inventory manages data classification through a comprehensive and structured approach:

Classification Process

  • Utilizes an Information Confidentiality Classification Scheme to categorize data based on legal requirements, value, criticality, and sensitivity to unauthorized disclosure or modification.
  • Assigns a Sensitivity Level to each dataset, ensuring appropriate security protections are in place.
  • Incorporates a Confidentiality Level for each asset in the inventory.


AI-Enhanced Classification

Cetbix employs AI to enhance the classification process, making it more efficient and accurate.

Customization and Flexibility

  • Allows organizations to define their own classification levels, typically ranging from three to five categories.
  • Supports custom classification schemes to meet specific organizational needs.

Integration with Security Controls

  • Uses classification levels to determine and consistently apply appropriate security controls across datasets.
  • Facilitates the implementation of Data Loss Prevention (DLP) tools based on classification data.

Reporting and Analysis

  • Provides summaries and reports on files per classification by department, repository, and control.
  • Offers a 3D Risk management dashboard for data visualization.

By providing these features, Cetbix inventory enables organizations to effectively manage their data classification, ensuring proper protection and compliance for sensitive information.

How Cetbix inventory integrate data from different departments

Cetbix inventory integrates data from different departments through several key features:

  • 360° Data Inventory: Cetbix creates a comprehensive view of data sources across all departments, enabling accurate prioritization analysis.
  • Data Silo Integration: The system integrates data silos that departments may have kept in Excel files or Access databases, overcoming challenges when incorporating this data into a data mart or data warehouse.
  • AI-Enhanced Inventorization: Cetbix utilizes AI to enhance comprehensive internal interviews for asset identification across departments, streamlining the often time-consuming process of data gathering.
  • Unified Data Management: The inventory covers both personal and general data, allowing organizations to create a unified data inventory across all departments.
  • Standardized Classification: Cetbix provides a standardized process for asset classification, including repository information, data type details, and confidentiality levels, ensuring consistency in data handling across departments.
  • Centralized Management: The system allows for centralized management of data assets from various departments, representing a significant shift for organizations with siloed departmental structures.

By implementing these features, Cetbix inventory helps organizations create a cohesive data management strategy across different departments, improving overall data accuracy and accessibility.

How to performs assets risk assessment on Cetbix

Cetbix performs risk assessment on assets through a comprehensive approach that combines human intelligence and machine learning. The key aspects of Cetbix's risk assessment process for assets include:

Asset Inventory and Classification

  • Creates a detailed inventory of assets across the organization
  • Classifies assets based on criticality, sensitivity, and value

Risk Identification

  • Identifies risks associated with each asset
  • Describes risk types, causes, and potential effects

Risk Analysis

  • Utilizes both qualitative and quantitative risk analysis methods
  • Employs Monte Carlo analysis for probability and impact assessment
  • Calculates metrics like Single-Loss Expectancy (SLE) and Annualized Loss Expectancy (ALE) // Cost Benefit Analysis

Risk Evaluation

  • Compares identified risks against predefined risk acceptance criteria
  • Utilizes a 3D Risk management dashboard for data visualization

Control Implementation

  • Integrates with the Internal Control System (ICS)
  • Allows setting of controls and mapping them to assets

Continuous Monitoring

  • Provides risk monitoring with reminder notifications and workflows
  • Enables ongoing assessment of security controls' effectiveness

Reporting and Documentation

  • Generates predefined risk reports and custom reports via Report Designer
  • Maintains risk records for documenting all processes

By combining these elements, Cetbix ISMS provides a holistic approach to asset risk assessment, enabling organizations to make informed decisions about their information security posture.
