Use the Software Asset Management application in conjunction with the Governance, Risk, and Compliance suite of applications to holistically work on compliance, risk, and
regulatory aspects.

IT asset management directly feeds critical information required by GRC
programs to monitor cyber security measures such as CIS controls from The Center for Internet
Security ™ to enhance the overall security preparedness and cyber defense
posture. For example, CIS controls 2.2, 2.4 require that organizations keep an inventory of all
software assets and ensure that they are supported by the vendor. This information is
automatically collected and surfaced on the CIS control indicate template from GRC.

For detailed information on Cybersecurity Control Accelerators and regulations such as CIS
controls, ISO 27001, 27002, see [Cybersecurity Controls
Accelerators](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cybersecurity-controls-accelerator&version=yokohama&pubname=yokohama-governance-risk-compliance&ft:locale=en-US).
