Asset Management

Most breaches start
with an asset nobody
knew existed

Alvor builds a living inventory across every environment, with an extensible set of built-in asset types plus custom types you define. Every asset is connected to the risks, policies, and compliance controls that depend on it.

You cannot protect what nobody has written down.

The security team

The register the rest of the program stands on.

  • The types and relationships your estate actually uses, plus your own
  • Vulnerability findings from your scanners attach to the asset they belong to
  • Risks name the assets they affect, chosen by live search at intake

The engineering lead

The register fills itself from the tools you already run.

  • Integration adapters pulling inventory in automatically
  • GitHub and GitLab bring repositories in with their vulnerability findings
  • AWS brings accounts, instances, databases, buckets, clusters and IAM principals

The asset owner

Ownership with a cadence, not a one-off spreadsheet exercise.

  • Certification policies by type, criticality or department
  • Campaigns with bulk certify, reminders and scheduled escalation
  • A Continuity tab inheriting the strictest recovery objectives, with attribution

What that looks like on screen.

01 · The register

One inventory, across every environment you run

Cloud, code, endpoints and the things nobody automated, each with its type, business criticality, status, location and a named owner. Built-in types cover the usual estate and you can define your own when they do not fit.

One inventory, across every environment you run

02 · A single asset

What it is, who owns it, and what breaks if it stops

Criticality and status up front, then a tab per question worth asking. Dependencies draws what this asset relies on and what relies on it, so the blast radius of an outage is something you can look at rather than reconstruct from memory.

The asset record

Each asset is one record with six parts.

Most platforms have an asset inventory. Alvor has an asset record: one entity with six dimensions, each cross-linked, each evidencing a different part of the security program.

Source of truth

One record

Four dimensions get dedicated landing pages because their categories warrant standalone consideration: dependency mapping, components, business continuity, and data governance. The other two live on the asset itself, where they belong.

See every asset, with no blind spots

01

Continuous Discovery

Find every asset - managed or shadow, cloud or closet. Ingest via API integrations, CSV/JSON import, or manual entry.

02

Intelligent Classification

Tag each asset with criticality, data sensitivity, regulatory scope, and encryption status. Dual ownership baked in.

03

Full Lifecycle Tracking

Follow every asset from Plan through Acquire, Deploy, Operate, and Retire. No stale spreadsheet rows.

04

Data Governance

Attach governance records: data types (PII, PHI, PCI), retention periods, encryption, processing justification.

05

Automated Recertification

Campaigns on your schedule. Owners notified at 7, 3, and 1 day before deadlines. Overdue assets auto-escalate.

06

Dependency Mapping

Map upstream and downstream relationships between assets, services, and data flows.

Discover, classify, and certify.

DISCOVER

Find every asset, managed or shadow

Four ingestion paths ensure nothing hides. API integrations pull from Veracode, AWS, Azure, and GCP. Bulk CSV/JSON import handles legacy data. The REST API lets you build custom connectors.

  • Veracode integration live - SAST, DAST, SCA findings auto-linked
  • HMAC-SHA-256 authenticated sync with configurable schedules
  • Extensible built-in asset types plus custom types you define, with rich field schemas

CLASSIFY

Context that outlives the person who entered it

Criticality levels, data classification tiers, encryption tracking, regulatory scope, dual ownership, and a flexible EAV architecture for custom fields.

  • Criticality: Low, Medium, High, Critical
  • Data classification: Public, Internal, Confidential, Restricted
  • Lifecycle phases: Plan → Acquire → Deploy → Operate → Retire

CERTIFY

Recertification on your schedule

Certification campaigns run on your schedule - monthly, quarterly, annual, or custom. Owners are notified at 7, 3, and 1 day before the deadline. Overdue assets auto-escalate.

  • Immediate or scheduled campaigns with configurable grace periods
  • Auto-escalation after N days overdue to specified roles
  • Full certification history: created, completed, extended, cancelled

One asset record, linked to every module

In Alvor, every asset is natively linked to the modules that depend on it. A vulnerability flows to a risk, maps to a compliance control, triggers an action plan - all traced back to one record.

Encrypted credential storage · Configurable sync schedules · Full audit trails

A register that maintains itself.

Asset inventories do not fail because nobody built one. They fail because nobody could keep it current.

Instead of

A CMDB nobody updates

Accurate the week it was built, and a work of fiction six months later.

In Alvor

Eight adapters pulling inventory from the tools you already run, plus certification campaigns that force a human check on a schedule.

Instead of

An asset list with no owner column

Everyone assumes somebody else is looking after it, so nobody is.

In Alvor

A named owner per asset, with reminders and escalation when a certification goes unanswered.

Instead of

Inventory that stops at the asset

You know the server exists. You do not know what would break without it.

In Alvor

Risks that name their affected assets, and continuity requirements inherited from the processes that depend on them.

These are the exact links in the data model.

Named precisely, because “everything connects to everything” is not a claim anyone can check. Select any module to see its links.
