Overview

The Applications module provides a centralized inventory of all applications discovered across your environment — including internal services and externally exposed platforms. It enables teams to track ownership, understand deployment types, and monitor application lifecycle and security posture.

Asset relationships showing linked assets and dependencies

This helps teams:
  • Understand how applications are linked to subdomains and other assets
  • Identify dependencies across the environment
  • Analyze impact before making changes

​
Data Sources (Adapters)

Applications are discovered through integrated data sources.
  • Example: Cloudflare
  • Shows which integrations are contributing asset discovery

​
Why This Matters

The Applications module helps teams:
  • Maintain a complete application inventory
  • Track ownership and accountability
  • Understand deployment environments (OnPrem vs SaaS)
  • Monitor lifecycle states of applications
  • Identify security issues across applications
  • Gain visibility into asset relationships
