Armis Earns 2025 Frost & Sullivan Company of the Year Award for Global Cyber-Physical Systems Security

Armis is honored to receive the 2025 Frost & Sullivan Company of the Year Recognition for Global Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) Security Industry Excellence in Best Practices. This prestigious recognition is Frost & Sullivan’s top honor, highlighting visionary innovation, market-leading performance, and an unmatched positive impact on customers. This honor reflects the dedication of the Armis team and our relentless commitment to both innovation and delivering superior value to our customers.

The Growing CPS Challenge

The lines between IT and cyber-physical systems (CPS) continue to blur. According to Frost & Sullivan’s Best Practices report, “ongoing digitalization and an ever-growing number of connected devices, systems, sensors, and devices have rapidly expanded the organizational architecture of businesses across industries. With more assets and systems now combined, businesses must contend with a larger, more integrated ecosystem that requires protection from a multitude of threat vectors and new risk factors.” Security teams are “overwhelmed with too many tools and too many alerts to manage an increasingly complex organizational network.” They are no longer looking for niche point solutions but are seeking comprehensive platforms that provide holistic visibility, real-time threat detection, and intelligent risk management across their entire CPS infrastructure.

Why Armis Won: A Proactive, Unified Approach

Frost & Sullivan recognized Armis for addressing these unmet security needs head-on with the Armis Centrix™ Cyber Exposure Management platform. The report praises Armis for enabling customers to move beyond simple visibility to achieving centralized risk management and proactive threat mitigation.

At the heart of the Armis Centrix™ platform is the AI-driven Armis Asset Intelligence Engine. The proprietary engine monitors and tracks over 6.5 billion connected assets, allowing it to automatically discover, classify, and profile every device in the environment. This intelligent foundation enables Armis to deliver a preventative, “left-of-boom” approach to security, prioritizing risks and threat vectors before they can compromise critical systems or escalate into a major breach.

Danielle VanZandt, Research Manager at Frost & Sullivan, noted, “Armis’ intelligent approach to the full CPS security threat detection and remediation lifecycle provides complete end-to-end protection against evolving threats.”

Recognized for Vision, Performance, and Customer Impact

The Frost & Sullivan analysis evaluated companies across two key dimensions: Visionary Innovation & Performance and Customer Impact.

Visionary Innovation & Performance:

Armis has demonstrated “accelerated solution development” and an aggressive strategy to bring critical capabilities to customers quickly. This includes the recent strategic acquisitions within an 18-month period from 2024 to early 2025:

• CTCI (now Armis Centrix™ for Early Warning) to add dark web and human intelligence.
• Silk Security (now Armis Centrix™ for Vulnerability Prioritization and Remediation) to streamline vulnerability prioritization and remediation.
• OTORIO (now Armis Centrix™ for OT/IoT Security) to add an on-premises option in addition to our SaaS based solution, secure remote access, attack path mapping, and digital twin modeling.

Customer Impact & Financial Success:

Armis’ commitment to expanding the Armix Centrix™ Cyber Exposure Management platform has translated directly into financial success and brand equity. The report notes Armis has seen annual growth “nearing almost triple-digit increases in the last 3 years” and 60% year-over-year revenue growth in international markets. This success demonstrates that customers are making larger, long-term investments in the Armis Centrix™ platform to secure their complete digital estate, including IT, OT, IoT, and IoMT.

Understanding the Threats: Common CPS Attack Methods

Protecting cyber-physical systems is non-negotiable, as an attack can disrupt critical operations, halt production, and threaten public safety. Threat actors use several common attack methods to target these environments, such as:

• Ransomware: Attackers are increasingly targeting critical OT and Industrial Control Systems (ICS), encrypting them and demanding a ransom to restore operations.
• Lateral Movement from IT to OT: Attackers exploit IT systems to gain access to OT networks, leveraging poorly segmented environments.
• Exploiting Misconfigurations: Leveraging poorly secured OT devices or default credentials.
• Man-in-the-Middle (MITM): This method involves intercepting (and sometimes altering) communications between two critical devices, such as a sensor and its controller, to cause physical disruption.

How Armis Centrix™ Secures CPS Environments

Armis Centrix™ is purpose-built to defend against these attacks and more. It provides a complete, end-to-end security lifecycle in a single platform:

1. Comprehensive Visibility: You cannot protect what you cannot see. Armis sees and classifies 100% of your assets, including IT, OT, IoT, IoMT, whether they are physical, virtual or hybrid;  even those you didn’t know you had.
2. Attack Surface Management: By understanding every asset, Armis maps the entire attack surface, identifies attack paths, and helps you prioritize the most critical vulnerabilities based on business criticality.
3. Real-Time Threat Detection: The platform proactively monitors all device behavior in real-time, detecting anomalies and active threats—like ransomware or MITM attacks—as they happen.
4. Automated Remediation: Armis stops attacks before they can disrupt your operations. It can automatically quarantine a suspicious device or integrate with your existing tools (firewalls, NACs, ticketing systems) to ensure a rapid and effective compensating control methodology.

We are incredibly proud of this recognition from Frost & Sullivan. It reinforces our commitment to providing a comprehensive, proactive, and intelligent cyber exposure management (CEM) security platform that enables organizations to see, protect, and manage their entire digital footprint.
