Quartermaster IT asset and software inventory
A continuously-updated register of every device you run and every piece of software on it, because you cannot protect what you cannot see.
Almost every organisation's asset register is a spreadsheet that was accurate on the day it was written. Quartermaster replaces it with something that stays true, because it is built from what is actually on the network rather than from what somebody remembered to type in.
It works from two directions at once. From the network, it discovers what is connected (servers, workstations, printers, cameras, controllers, phones), identifies what each one is, and notices when something new appears that nobody mentioned. From the endpoints, it lists what is installed on each machine, down to versions.
That register is then classified: what each asset is worth to you, what it would cost you if it stopped, and who owns it. Auditors ask for exactly this, and so does every other part of the platform: you cannot report on the vulnerabilities of software you did not know you were running.
Devices that should not be counted can be excluded, and equipment that has been retired is archived rather than deleted, so last year's register still explains last year's decisions.
What Quartermaster does
Discovers what is connected
The network is surveyed continuously and new arrivals are flagged, not silently accepted.
Lists installed software
Every package and version on every managed machine, kept current automatically.
Classifies by importance
Value, criticality and ownership recorded per asset, the basis of a defensible risk assessment.
Keeps its own history
Retired equipment is archived rather than erased, so past records still make sense.
- A live hardware inventory built from the network itself
- A software and version inventory for every managed machine
- Asset classification with owners, criticality and business impact
- An exportable register in the form an auditor expects to receive it
Asset management and cyber hygiene: the foundation every other measure is judged against.
And IMO maritime cyber resilience: IACS UR E26/E27
IACS UR E26 §4.1.1 + E27 §3.1.1, the vessel and computer-based-system inventory: hardware, software, firmware and protocols.

These are the capabilities Quartermaster shares its facts with.
