Add, remove, assign, and modify custom asset tags in Attack Surface Discovery to add context to assets and improve asset organization.

A custom asset tag consists of a property and a value that you define. Custom asset tags allow you to add additional context to discovered assets in order to better define, organize, and filter assets according to your organization's priorities. Assign tags to an asset, and then view the tags on the associated asset profile screen or card. You may also filter assets for specific tags from the asset lists in Attack Surface Discovery.
Custom tag management is performed on the Manage Tags screen. Open the Manage Tags screen by:
  • Selecting one or more assets from the asset list and clicking Manage Tags
  • Hovering over the name of an asset on the asset profile screen, selecting the Custom Tags tab, and clicking Manage Tags
  • Going to a specific asset profile and clicking Manage Tags in the sidebar

  • Custom tagging is not available for application and API-type assets.

    • Example: A device is assigned "Unit: Global" and "Unit: Europe" custom tags. The device currently has two custom tags.
