What do you mean "audit your network"?

Most companies are not in total control of what's on their corporate networks. That means they can't answer critical questions such as: What software is installed, is there unauthorized mp3, video, and music files on the computers? With changes in the economy are you paying too much for software licenses and maintenance that is not required?

Benefits of an Asset Management audit

When a network is professionally audited, the process provides a better understanding of the current configurations within the network. In addition, it helps companies to effectively utilize the components and assets that are currently on the system. In addition, the  company gets a better understanding of other types of technologies they can implement onto the current architecture. A network auditor looks to identify all kind of deficiencies present (old computers, outdated software, unauthorized apps) within the current set-up. In addition, this process will alert required organizations to ensure that it complies with the legislation and business requirements. Throughout the network auditing, a company will get a sense of its efficiency, and compliance, along with aiding them with asset logs.

Security of the entire system is a priority including the inventory of switches and routers and equipment location. With a network audit the information a company gets will inform them of what they can expect to spend on network gear allowing them to better plan for any kinds of office upgrades and company growth.
