According to the ServiceNow Hardware Asset Management documentation, the Scanned Assets related list displays the assets that have been scanned using the ServiceNow Agent mobile app during an audit. The Scanned Assets related list is updated each time scans are submitted from the app, which can be done manually or automatically based on the app settings

According to the ServiceNow Hardware Asset Management documentation, advanced risk assessment is a process of identifying, analyzing, and evaluating the risks associated with hardware assets and configuration items (CIs) in the configuration management database (CMDB)1. Advanced risk assessment uses the Advanced Risk Assessment engine, which is built to address risk through an integrated risk framework2. The advanced risk assessment process consists of the following steps1:
* Create a risk assessment scope: This step defines the scope and criteria of the data to be assessed, such as the asset class, category, or attribute. The risk assessment scope also specifies the frequency and duration of the assessment.
* Create a risk assessment schedule: This step determines when and how often the assessment runs, based on the risk assessment scope. The risk assessment schedule also defines the assessment owner, who is responsible for overseeing the assessment process and approving the results.
* Assign the assessment tasks: This step assigns the assessment tasks to the appropriate assessors, who are the users or groups who have the knowledge and authority to evaluate and update the data. The assessment tasks can be assigned manually or automatically, based on predefined rules or workflows.
* Run the assessment: This step executes the assessment process, which involves sending notifications and reminders to the assessors, displaying the data to be assessed in a user-friendly interface, allowing the assessors to review and modify the data, and tracking the progress and status of the assessment tasks.
* Review the assessment results: This step allows the assessment owner to verify and approve the results of the assessment, before applying the changes to the CMDB. The assessment owner can also view the risk scores, risk indicators, and risk heat maps of the assessed data.
* Handle the risk response: This step involves creating and managing risk response tasks to address the identified risks. Risk response tasks are records that track the actions taken to mitigate, transfer, avoid, or accept the risks. Risk response tasks can be created manually by the assessment owner or automatically by the system based on predefined rules or workflows.
For advanced risk assessment, risk response can be handled in the following ways:
* Create multiple risk response tasks: This option allows the assessment owner to create more than one risk response task for each assessed data, depending on the complexity and severity of the risk. For example, the assessment owner can create a mitigation task to reduce the impact or likelihood of the risk, and a transfer task to shift the responsibility or ownership of the risk to another party3.
* Create at least one risk response task: This option requires the assessment owner to create at least one risk response task for each assessed data, regardless of the complexity and severity of the risk. This ensures that every risk is addressed and documented in the system3.
The other options are not correct because:
* Skipped entirely based on attributes defined in the RAM: This option is not a valid way to handle risk response for advanced risk assessment. The RAM (Risk Assessment Matrix) is a tool that helps to calculate the risk score and risk indicator of the assessed data, based on the impact and likelihood attributes defined in the risk assessment scope1. The RAM does not determine whether to skip the risk response or not.
* Must create a mitigation response task: This option is not a mandatory way to handle risk response for advanced risk assessment. A mitigation response task is one of the possible types of risk response tasks, but not the only one. Depending on the risk appetite and strategy of the organization, the assessment owner can choose other types of risk response tasks, such as transfer, avoid, or accept3.

Hardware asset management, Procurement, and Cost management are the plugins which are not active by default in base Servicenow System

* To utilize the contract rate cards features, you need to activate the Rate Management plugin, which provides the ability to define and manage rates for various types of costs and expenses1.
* The contract rate cards features allow you to capture operating costs by generating expense lines representing the cost of a contract. You can associate a contract to certain assets and costs of those assets are tied to the contract. This is similar to a rate card cost, except the contract contains all the costs2.
* The other plugins are not required to use the contract rate cards features. The Financial Management plugin provides the ability to track and manage the financial performance of your IT services3. The Contract Management plugin provides the ability to create and manage contracts for assets, services, and vendors4. The Cost Management plugin provides the ability to track and allocate costs for configuration items, tasks, and projects5.
