Assets

Assets are the domains and network ranges you want HoundER to monitor. HoundER uses them as the seeds for discovery — everything under Findings is derived from scanning your assets.

Each asset has a type, either:

  • Domain — a hostname, e.g. acme01.com.
  • Netblock — a CIDR range, e.g. 10.0.0.0/24.

Adding an asset manually

Click New Asset and fill out the form:

  • Project — required. Every asset belongs to exactly one project; this is pre-filled with your currently selected project, and you can pick a different one if you belong to more than one.
  • Type — Domain or Netblock.
  • Value — the domain name or CIDR.
  • Criticality — Critical, High, Medium, or Low.
  • Description — free text, up to 1000 characters.
  • Tags — freeform labels to help organize assets.
  • Scan options — controls whether the asset is included in continuous scanning.

Submit to create the asset. It's queued for discovery and scanning according to its scan options; results begin appearing under Findings as they're detected, which can take anywhere from minutes to a few hours depending on scope.

Importing via CSV

For bulk imports, click Import and upload a .csv, .tsv, .xls, or .txt file. The importer lets you map your file's columns to HoundER fields interactively — there's no fixed header requirement. A sample CSV is available from the import dialog; its columns are:

Managing existing assets

From the assets table you can search, edit, pause/resume scanning, move assets between projects, export the current list to CSV, or delete assets.
