Asset Management

Manage your IT systems and assets centrally – including AI-assisted protection needs assessment for confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Keep hardware, software, and cloud services continuously up to date and maintain your entire IT inventory as a living foundation for risk analyses and audits.

ASSET MANAGEMENT

Centrally capture and document IT assets

Complete documentation of all IT assets is the foundation of an effective ISMS. Capture all IT assets centrally – from servers to workstations to cloud services – with responsibilities and provider details, and assign them to appropriate categories.

  • Centrally capture IT assets, servers, and cloud services
  • Document technical details, configurations, responsibilities, and the providers in use
  • Record manufacturer and supplier contacts per system
  • Document hosting, location, operating systems, and client management
  • Map hierarchical system relationships and data flows between systems
  • Record encryption, reachability, NIS2 relevance, and vulnerabilities per system
  • Optional, supplementary "data processing systems" view in combination with the data protection module
  • A revision on every approval with change comparison; activities show who did what and when

PROCESS INTEGRATION & COMPLIANCE

Process integration and compliance verification

Assign systems to business processes and identify dependencies at a glance. Revisions on every approval with change comparison support audits and meet compliance verification requirements.

  • Assign systems to business processes
  • Prioritize critical systems by business relevance and protection requirements
  • Determine protection needs for confidentiality, integrity, and availability via a damage-scenario matrix based on the maximum principle – including the accumulation effect of linked systems and inheritance across the asset tree according to BSI Standard 200-2, manually or AI-assisted
  • Export protection needs assessment as PDF and DOCX – summary with overall protection needs, damage scenario matrix and inherited sources, customizable via document settings
  • Protection needs visible and filterable in the overview table
  • Complete version history for audits and regulatory authorities
  • Comprehensive IT inventory as a basis for risk analyses
  • Link assets directly with TOMs, audits, and risk analyses

ISMS COCKPIT

Protection requirements and modules per asset in the cockpit

The "Assets" tab in the ISMS cockpit shows your system inventory from the perspective of standards conformity: which requirement catalog an asset is assigned to, which protection requirement it carries and how many modules follow from it. The protection requirement is inherited across the asset tree, so subordinate systems are not classified below their parent object.

  • Asset, asset type, requirement catalog, protection requirement and number of modules in one table
  • BSI asset type as a column in the overview and export – when the type changes, the selection points out modules and requirements that no longer match and removes them only after confirmation
  • "Requirements" section on the asset: key figures on the assessment status, assignment of individual requirements or entire modules – one requirement can be assessed for many assets at once
  • Protection requirement colour-graded from normal to very high
  • Inheritance of the protection requirement across the entire asset tree
  • A hint when the selected catalog lies below the determined protection requirement

Frequently asked questions

A structured form guides you through responsibilities, manufacturer and supplier contacts, vendor details, description and purpose, hosting and location, operating systems and client management, as well as encryption, accessibility, NIS2 relevance and vulnerabilities. The linked technical and organizational measures complete the record. Systems can be categorized, arranged into parent and child systems and connected through data flows. The BSI asset type appears as a column in the overview and in the export.

For the protection goals of confidentiality, integrity and availability, you assess damage scenarios in a matrix; the overall protection requirement follows the maximum principle. Linked systems are taken into account, including the accumulation effect. You classify manually or with AI support and review the result before you adopt it – the decision stays with you. You can export the assessment as PDF or DOCX with a summary, the damage scenario matrix and the inherited sources.

In line with BSI Standard 200-2, the protection requirement is inherited across the entire asset tree, so child systems are never classified below their parent system. If you deliberately set a manual classification for an asset, it applies to that asset only. The export of the protection requirements assessment lists the inherited sources, so auditors can trace where a classification comes from.

In the “Requirements” section of an asset, you assign individual requirements or entire modules; the BSI IT-Grundschutz modules can be filtered by layer, for example “Operations” or “IT systems”. Key figures show the assessment status, and one requirement can be assessed for many assets at once. If you change the BSI asset type, the selection points out modules and requirements that no longer fit and removes them only after you confirm.

Yes. preeco | information security and preeco | data protection share one platform. If you license both products, the additional “Data processing systems” view covers the systems relevant to data protection, and a switch toggles your workspace between the information security and the data protection view. Information security officers and data protection officers maintain the same system inventory instead of reconciling two lists.

preeco handles data migrations from legacy systems as an individual project: the source systems and data formats are analyzed, the data structures are mapped, a customer-specific import routine is developed and, after test runs, imported into production. Support with data migration is optional and charged separately. Alternatively, you enter your systems directly via the structured form and build up the inventory step by step.

Every time an asset is released, preeco automatically creates an immutable revision. Two revisions can be compared visually, with additions shown in green and removals in red; a stored SHA-256 checksum reveals any subsequent alteration. Comparison and integrity checks apply to revisions created since this feature was introduced. The activity log additionally shows who performed which action and when.
