Updated over 3 weeks ago

Overview

This article explains how to edit one or more assets in Hyver to define their relevancy, scope, and importance. Marking these attributes ensures that only the right assets are included in your engagement and prioritized appropriately.


1. Open the Assets page

Click the Assets icon in the left navigation pane to view all assets in your current engagement.


2. Select the assets to edit

Check the box next to each asset you want to update.
Once selected, an Edit asset details icon will appear at the top center of the page:

💡 You can use this same process to edit a single asset or multiple assets at once.


3. Click Edit asset details

This opens a panel at the top of the screen where you can adjust asset-level settings:


4. Update the following fields

  • Relevancy
    Choose Relevant or Not Relevant.

    • Relevant assets are considered part of your organization and will be scanned.

    • Not Relevant assets are excluded from the risk analysis.

  • Scope
    Choose In Scope or Out of Scope.

    • In Scope assets are actively included in the assessment.

    • Out of Scope assets are excluded, even if they fall under a broader domain or IP range.

  • Importance
    Set the level of importance (1–3) using the blue box indicator. More boxes = more business impact:

  • Tags
    Select existing tags or create new ones to help organize or flag assets for tracking.


5. Click Update

Save your changes by clicking the Update button:


Important notes

  • Changes to scope and relevancy directly affect whether an asset is scanned or included in dashboards.

  • Always double-check engagement selection if you're applying scope settings — it’s easy to miss.

  • This process is critical for keeping your assessment focused and relevant.
