Endpoint inventory queries
Ask structured questions about operating-system state. osquery exposes device information through SQL-style tables for scoped inventory and investigation.
- Structured inventory. Inspect approved operating-system, software, and configuration tables.
- Scheduled queries. Run a defined query set and collect results through a configured logger.
- Focused questions. Query a specific aspect of a device during an authorized investigation.
- Useful context. Join selected inventory observations with an existing security case.
A defined query pack, supported tables, reviewed permissions, and a collection destination. Query results provide evidence; they do not block malware or prove that a device is safe.
