What is Snipe-IT? #
Snipe-IT is an asset management system that enables IT departments to track assets, asset owners, purchase information, software licensing, and support information.
Why Should You Use the Snipe-IT Connector? #
The Snipe-IT connector provides visibility into the assets in your environment. You can use this visibility to:
-
ensure assets are managed per your security policies
-
find vulnerabilities quickly and remediate
How Does This Connector Work? #
Lucidum executes read-only requests to the Snipe-IT REST API and ingests only meta-data about Snipe-IT assets. Lucidum does not retrieve any data stored on your assets.
