Asset Discovery and Inventory solution that automatically generates a complete inventory of devices in the corporate environment, inside or outside the network.

What Does Armis Do?

Armis focuses on protecting all types of connected devices and assets, both traditional (IT) and those often overlooked or unmanaged, such as:

• IoT (Internet of Things): Smart devices, sensors, cameras.
• OT (Operational Technology): Industrial control systems (SCADA, PLC, DCS) in factories, critical infrastructure, energy.
• IoMT (Internet of Medical Things): Connected medical devices in hospitals and clinics.
• 5G Devices: Next-generation connectivity.
• Cloud and Virtual Assets: Resources present in cloud environments.

Armis’s main platform is Armis Centrix™, a “cyber exposure management” system powered by an AI-driven Asset Intelligence Engine. Its key functionalities include:

• Complete and Real-time Visibility: Armis automatically discovers and catalogs every single asset connected to the network, whether managed or unmanaged, wired or wireless. It provides a detailed view of the device, its behavior, and its vulnerabilities. This is crucial because many organizations don’t know exactly how many and what devices are connected to their networks, creating blind spots for attackers.
• Vulnerability and Risk Management: It identifies vulnerabilities across all assets and assesses their risk based on their importance to the business and potential exploitability. This allows companies to prioritize and remediate the most critical vulnerabilities.
• Threat Detection and Response: It continuously monitors device behavior to detect anomalies and suspicious activities that could indicate an attack. It uses AI to identify threats like malware, ransomware, DDoS attacks, and lateral movement within the network.
• “Agentless” Security: One of Armis’s distinctive features is that it doesn’t require software agents to be installed on devices. This is fundamental for protecting devices that cannot install software (e.g., many IoT and OT devices, medical devices) or where agent installation could compromise operational stability.
• Integration with Existing Tools: It integrates with existing IT security infrastructure (firewalls, SIEM, NAC, etc.) to enhance the effectiveness of tools already in use and orchestrate a coordinated response to threats.
• “Early Warning” and Threat Intelligence: It leverages AI, dark web analysis, and human intelligence to anticipate and block attacks before they can impact the organization.

In summary, Armis specializes in providing organizations with a deep understanding and continuous protection of their “extended attack surface,” which includes not only traditional computers but all connected devices that represent potential entry points for cybercriminals.
