CIS-HAM practice question 7 of 25
Which applications are required to perform a blind audit of your asset inventory?
Full set: 196 questionsA blind audit involves scanning assets in a location without a pre-populated list of what is expected to be there. This process requires two key components. First, the Hardware Asset Management (HAM) application provides the backend system of record, the audit functionality, and the logic to reconcile the scanned data against the asset repository. Second, the ServiceNow Agent mobile app is the tool used by the auditor in the field. It leverages the mobile device's camera to scan barcodes or QR codes on assets, feeding the data directly into the audit task within the HAM application.
A. The ServiceNow My Assets mobile app is designed for end-users to view their assigned assets, not for technicians to perform inventory audits.
B. Software Asset Management (SAM) is used for managing software licenses and installations, not for conducting physical hardware inventory audits.
C. ITSM Asset Management is the base-level application; the advanced audit capabilities, including blind audits, are features of the HAM Professional application.
D. While ITSM Asset Management is a prerequisite, the ServiceNow Agent mobile app is the correct mobile tool, not the combination with the base application.
