Control Compliance Suite provides certain predefined asset types that you can use to import the assets into the asset system. Asset types let you import the asset data for a collection of fields that belong to a specific entity. In the process of managing the assets in the system, you might need to create your custom asset types to manage the assets that are outside the scope of the predefined asset types.
Control Compliance Suite lets you create your own schema for the asset types and the entities. In addition, you can also extend the schema for the predefined asset types and extend the custom entity schema. You can also create new target types and edit the newly created target types.
