# Agents

> Monitor and manage registered agents responsible for asset discovery, data collection, and real-time updates within your infrastructure.

## Overview

The **Agents** module provides visibility into all registered agents that continuously collect and update asset data across your infrastructure.

It enables teams to monitor agent health, activity, and ensure data ingestion pipelines remain active and reliable.

## Registered Agents

This view lists all agents currently connected to the platform.

### Key Information

* **Hostname** — Device or system running the agent
* **IP Address** — Network identifier of the agent
* **OS / Platform** — Operating system (Windows, Linux, Darwin, etc.)
* **Version** — Installed agent version
* **Status** — Current operational state (Active/Inactive)
* **Last Heartbeat** — Last communication timestamp

***

## Agent Status & Health

Agents continuously send heartbeat signals to indicate availability.

### What It Means

* **Active** — Agent is online and reporting data
* **Recent heartbeat** — Confirms real-time connectivity
* **Delayed heartbeat** — May indicate connectivity or system issues

This ensures asset data remains fresh and continuously updated.

Each agent includes an action menu for management operations.

### Available Action

* **Delete Agent**\
  Removes the agent from the system and stops further data collection from that source

***

## Why This Matters

* Ensures continuous asset discovery across environments
* Helps identify inactive or failing agents quickly
* Maintains accuracy of asset inventory data
* Provides control over data collection sources
