Armis Named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for CPS Protection Platforms for the 2nd Consecutive Year

We are proud to announce that Armis has once again been recognized as a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for CPS Protection Platforms. We believe this recognition reflects our continued commitment to helping organizations secure the complex, critical world of cyber-physical systems (CPS) and reinforces the strength of our platform-first strategy.

CPS leaders now operate across deeply interconnected ecosystems where IT, OT, IoT, IoMT, cloud, and code collectively shape both risk and resilience. Persistent challenges are wide-ranging, from completely reactive vulnerability management and alert fatigue to incomplete asset awareness and growing exposure from legacy hardware and software. These are issues that point solutions have failed to solve.

Armis addresses the breadth and depth of these challenges with a fundamentally different approach. Rather than focusing on narrow monitoring or siloed visibility, Armis delivers a broad, proactive Cyber Exposure Management platform designed to continuously discover, profile, and understand the entire environment.

We feel that this year’s Leader recognition carries particular significance. Among the evaluated vendors, we believe Armis is a trusted player that offers a comprehensive Cyber Exposure Management platform, with a focus on proactive security. In our view, this aspect of our offering signals an important industry shift, from fragmented visibility tools to unified platforms capable of managing cyber risk across the entire attack surface.

“Our customers in OT-driven industries acknowledge that CPS security now extends beyond conventional OT boundaries. To meet CPS security demands, they require a platform designed to deliver holistic protection.”

Security strategies built around isolated areas risk missing the broader exposure landscape that organizations must now manage.

A Continued Focus on CPS with ServiceNow

At Armis, protecting critical environments remains core to our mission. We believe our recognition in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ reinforces both the urgency of securing CPS and the importance of a unified, proactive platform approach designed for the realities of modern enterprises.

As we look ahead to our planned acquisition by ServiceNow in the second half of 2026, our focus remains firmly on CPS security. Armis will continue to operate with the same mission and innovation strategy, while benefiting from ServiceNow’s investment and commitment. This will prove to be a clear validation of the capabilities, expertise, and value we bring to securing increasingly converged IT, Mission IT, and OT environments.

Securing the Reality of CPS

Historically, security solutions have been designed to address specific technology silos. However, cyber risk no longer respects these boundaries. Exposures frequently emerge from the interactions between systems, where vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, identities, and dependencies intersect across multiple asset classes.

Armis was built to handle the specific demands of CPS proactively. Armis Centrix™ enables organizations to identify and manage the risks that matter to them and gain a unified understanding of their CPS environment. Rather than forcing security teams to stitch together fragmented insights from multiple point solutions, we believe organizations benefit from a platform that contextualizes exposures across domains, aligning security decisions with operational and business realities.

Redefining What Proactive Cybersecurity Means

Over the past 12 months, we have seen a decisive evolution in how organizations approach cybersecurity. Reactive, patch-centric models are increasingly challenged by the speed, scale, and complexity of modern threat actors. Simply identifying vulnerabilities or responding after incidents occur leaves organizations perpetually fatigued and lagging behind the risk curve.

Security leaders are now focused on understanding which exposures truly matter, what can realistically be exploited, and which risks will have the greatest business impact. With Armis Centrix™ for Early Warning, organizations can anticipate emerging risks, prioritize exposures based on real-world exploitability, and act before incidents occur. We believe proactive security is no longer a luxury, it is a necessity.

Extending Application Security into CPS Protection

As CPS environments become more software-defined, application security has become a critical part of enterprise risk. Traditional AppSec struggles to keep up with AI-assisted coding and continuous delivery, where AI-generated code can introduce higher vulnerability rates.

Armis Centrix™ for Application Security (AppSec) addresses this gap by scanning, detection, contextualization, prioritization remediation, and developer workflows across the software development lifecycle. By integrating directly with Git repositories, CI/CD pipelines, and containers, it detects vulnerabilities and scales to unlimited languages, including insecure AI-generated code and novel variants. Integrated with Armis Centrix™, vulnerabilities are linked to business context, asset criticality, and real-world exposure, enabling risk-informed remediation and stronger security-development alignment.

By extending into application security, Armis leads with its comprehensive CPS security portfolio, acknowledging that software risk and operational risk are inseparable in modern environments.

Deployment Flexibility for the Real-World

As CPS security requirements continue to mature, organizations are demanding greater flexibility in how security platforms are deployed. Operational constraints, regulatory obligations, and architectural preferences vary widely across industries.

To address these realities, Armis now offers on-premises, cloud, and hybrid deployment options. This flexibility enables organizations to align Armis Centrix™ with their infrastructure strategies while maintaining a consistent, unified security model.

Looking Ahead

We believe Armis’ recognition as a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for CPS Protection Platforms underscores both the scale of the challenge in industrial environments and the necessity of a unified approach. Armis remains committed to helping organizations secure their most critical assets and processes with clarity, confidence, and resilience.

The future of CPS security will be defined by proactive, platform-driven strategies  and Armis is proud to help lead that transformation.
