It delivers complete visibility, vulnerability detection, and risk management across IT, enterprise, medical, operational technology, ICS, IoT, and IIoT environments.

Armis is privately held and headquartered in Palo Alto, California. Armis provides agentless security for IoT and other networked devices by passively observing device behavior and building statistical/machine-learning models to fingerprint normal activity. The company emphasizes a non-intrusive approach because active scanning can disrupt older or sensitive devices. Armis says its model is effectively a crowdsourced device behavior engine, with clients contributing to master behavioral models. The startup reported 700% growth in the last year and had about 125 employees at the time of the article, with plans to double headcount before year-end. To support that growth it plans to hire across sales and marketing, expand customer support, and build partnership programs with systems integrators, ISVs and MSPs. The company has used recent funding to accelerate hiring and scale operations. Armis provides an agentless security platform that discovers, fingerprints and monitors IoT and other connected devices by analyzing existing infrastructure, network and wireless traffic. The company maintains a growing knowledge base of more than 5 million devices and combines device fingerprints with environmental context to detect anomalous behavior and, depending on configuration and severity, alert or shut down devices. Armis launched in 2015 and is led by co-founder and CEO Yevgeny Dibrov. The startup has dozens of customers and about 50 employees, with a 35-person R&D team in Israel and sales and marketing staff in the US. It recently raised a $30 million Series B (bringing total funding to $47 million) and plans to use part of the capital to increase R&D to continue building its device database. Investors in the company include Bain Capital Ventures, Red Dot Capital, Sequoia Capital and Tenaya Capital.
