About
Agentless cyber-physical systems security platform — the largest pure-play IoT/OT/IoMT security company by valuation ($4.2B), with 40%+ of the Fortune 100 as customers. Armis Centrix discovers, monitors, and secures all connected assets — managed, unmanaged, medical devices, OT systems, and IoT — without requiring agents or network taps. Unlike traditional IT security tools, Armis identifies assets by behavioral fingerprinting (what the device does on the network) rather than agents, making it s...

Ideal Customer
- Armis is purpose-built for mid-market and enterprise organizations, with its sweet spot being large enterprises and Fortune 500/Global 500 companies that have complex, heterogeneous environments with significant numbers of unmanaged, IoT, OT, or medical devices.
- The platform scales to millions of devices and is particularly well-suited for organizations in healthcare (hospitals with 230+ beds), manufacturing, critical infrastructure, energy/utilities, and federal government — environments where agents cannot be deployed on sensitive equipment.
Key Differentiators
- Armis' primary differentiator is its agentless, passive architecture — the platform requires no software agents or active scanning, making it uniquely safe to deploy in environments with sensitive or legacy equipment (medical devices, OT/ICS, building automation).
- Its core technology advantage is the AI-powered Armis Asset Intelligence Engine, which is built from a proprietary dataset of over 5 billion devices and provides unmatched device classification, behavioral baselining, and risk scoring.
Industries Served
- Armis serves an exceptionally broad range of industries including healthcare and life sciences, pharmaceuticals, medical device manufacturing, financial services, insurance, federal/defense/government (including SLED), critical infrastructure, utilities, oil and gas, energy, manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, logistics and transportation, retail, consumer packaged goods, food and beverage, hospitality, telecommunications, media and entertainment, technology, and smart cities.
- The company has particular depth and specialization in healthcare (IoMT/medical devices), OT/industrial (manufacturing, energy, utilities), and public sector/federal, with its medical device security product alone accounting for roughly a quarter of revenue as of 2024.
Service Coverage
- Armis operates globally across 165 countries, with its Asset Intelligence Engine covering over 5 billion devices and more than 25,000 customer locations across 17 industries.
- The company is headquartered in San Francisco, CA, with significant offices in Tel Aviv (R&D), London (EMEA HQ), Munich, Bucharest, New York, Reston (VA), and Sydney.
Partnerships
- Armis has built an extensive multi-channel go-to-market strategy through its Armis Integration Network (AIN) and ARC reseller program.
- Strategic technology alliances include CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, NVIDIA (BlueField-3 DPU for CPS security), Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet, Cisco, and ServiceNow (now parent company).
Company Size & Ownership
- Armis was founded in 2015 (some sources cite 2016) by Yevgeny Dibrov (CEO) and Nadir Izrael (CTO) in San Francisco, CA.
- As of mid-2026, the company has approximately 1,200–1,300 employees across 6 continents, up from approximately 829 in August 2024, representing roughly 27% employee growth year-over-year.

Offerings
2 offeringsArmis Centrix for Medical Devices
Agentless medical device and IoMT security — discovers and inventories all IP-connected clinical devices (MRI, infusion pumps, patient monitors, imaging systems) without scanning or agents that could disrupt sensitive equipment. Risk-scores each device based on vulnerability, exposure, and network behavior. Integrates with firewalls and NAC systems to enforce segmentation policies automatically.
Armis Centrix for OT/SCADA
OT and industrial control system security — passive monitoring of PLCs, HMIs, SCADA systems, and building automation without active scanning. Behavioral anomaly detection identifies unusual OT network activity indicative of lateral movement or ransomware. Integrates with Palo Alto, Fortinet, and Cisco for automated threat response.
