1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions stored thereon which, when executed by one or more computers, cause the one more computers to perform operations comprising:
- detecting coupling of an asset device to a computing device;
retrieving an asset identifier stored in a computer readable memory of the asset device;
determining the asset device is a new asset device;
creating an asset data record corresponding to the asset device;
determining a user identifier from the computing device, wherein a user corresponding to the user identifier has previously entered login data to authorize access to the computing device;
associating the asset device with the user identifier in the asset data record; and
recording a data associated with the asset device in the asset data record.

Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for asset management are disclosed. In one example, a system and method includes receiving an indication of a coupling of an asset to a computing device. An asset identifier stored on the asset is received and an asset data record corresponding to the asset is located. A data associated with the asset is recorded in the asset data record.
