How does Isora GRC use inventory?
- Laura McWilliams
Owned by Laura McWilliams
Isora GRC stores information about three different kinds of inventory in its database- Hosts, Apps, and Products. These types of inventory are used when performing certain types of assessments. It’s possible to use Isora GRC to perform organizational assessments without having any inventory data at all. However, most institutions do use Isora GRC to track inventory related to assessments.
