Supercharging Jira Service Management with Autonomic Social Discovery and other Virima tools

You know that Jira Service Management is your core service desk, but do you know how to maximize the return on investment? Virima’s range of IT tools provide a way to discover what’s going on across your company, and help you make sense of it. 

Virima’s Autonomic Social Discovery (ASD) is an efficient and dynamic tool that revolutionizes the traditional ways of gathering human intelligence. It furnishes a profound understanding of the comprehensive IT and cyber asset inventory, paving the way for effective decision-making. 

Not bound by the limitations of classic discovery probes and agents, ASD helps fill crucial knowledge gaps, such as those related to the asset lifecycle status, ownership data, business criticality, policies, and Service Level Agreements (SLAs).

What is Virima’s Autonomic Social Discovery?

Virima’s ASD is an innovative feature that automates human intelligence gathering and offers valuable insights into IT and cyber assets that go beyond what can be achieved using discovery probes and agents. 

Key benefits of Autonomic Social Discovery

Automate human intelligence gathering: ASD automates the process of gathering asset information that cannot be auto-discovered, ensuring completeness and integrity of asset configuration and inventory data.

Better collaboration: ASD helps break down information silos and fosters collaboration on what data is needed to eliminate crucial asset inventory blind spots.

Ensure completeness of ITAM and CMDB: Complete and accurate asset inventory data is vital for cost control, quick incident response, change planning, vulnerability prioritization, and dependable reporting.

How does Virima Autonomic Social Discovery work?

ASD allows marking any out-of-the-box or custom CI/asset attribute for integrity checking. When the system identifies missing human intelligence, it notifies the current owner to provide the necessary data. 

Task assignments can be reassigned or re-routed as needed, and the system learns from its previous experiences to enhance data collection. This ongoing process ensures IT Asset Management (ITAM) and Configuration Management Database (CMDB) completeness and integrity assurance.
