Armis Secures Top RSAC Awards, Cementing AI-Driven Security Leadership
SAN FRANCISCO, CA – March 23, 2026 – As the global cybersecurity community converges for the RSAC 2026 conference, Armis has emerged as a dominant force, securing a trio of prestigious Global InfoSec Awards from Cyber Defense Magazine. The accolades, which include “Best Solution” for its Armis Centrix™ platform, underscore the company’s rising influence in the critical field of cyber exposure management.
In a significant validation of its technology and strategy, the cyber exposure management company was recognized across multiple categories. The Armis Centrix™ platform won “Best Solution” for Cyber Exposure Management, the company itself was named “Publisher’s Choice Cybersecurity Company,” and CEO and Co-Founder Yevgeny Dibrov was honored as “Industry Pioneering CEO.” These wins, announced amidst the industry's most prominent gathering, highlight a broader shift towards unified, AI-driven platforms capable of securing an increasingly complex and interconnected digital landscape.
The recognition comes at a pivotal moment for a security industry grappling with the explosive growth of connected devices and the rise of AI-powered threats. The awards signal strong market confidence in Armis's approach to providing a single, comprehensive view of every asset within an organization's environment, from traditional IT servers to the sprawling ecosystem of IoT, OT, and cloud assets.
A New Era of Cyber Exposure Management
The core of Armis's success lies in its response to a fundamental security challenge: organizations cannot protect what they cannot see. The modern attack surface has dissolved traditional network perimeters, expanding to include everything from factory floor machinery and medical devices to cloud applications and AI-generated code. This reality demands a new paradigm for security.
“We cannot safeguard modern infrastructure with yesterday’s tactics; the extended attack surface demands a unified, AI-driven approach that sees, protects and manages all assets (IT, OT, IoT, IoMT, applications, code, cloud and AI) in real time,” said Yevgeny Dibrov, CEO and Co-Founder of Armis. “Armis secures the most complex environments of organizations and governments worldwide to protect society from the destruction cybercriminals seek to cause. These awards reinforce our dedication to fundamentally redefining cyber exposure management for the era of hyper-connectivity.”
The Armis Centrix™ platform is an agentless, cloud-native solution designed to provide this unified view. It leverages an AI-powered Asset Intelligence Engine that monitors billions of devices worldwide to understand normal behavior and instantly detect anomalies. This allows organizations to move from a reactive, alert-driven security posture to a proactive strategy of continuous monitoring and risk management.
This innovative approach was a key factor in the awards. “Armis embodies three major features we judges look for to become winners: understanding tomorrow’s threats, today, providing a cost-effective solution and innovating in unexpected ways that can help mitigate cyber risk and get one step ahead of the next breach,” said Gary S. Miliefsky, Publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine. This endorsement from CDM, a publication focused on next-generation security solutions, adds significant weight to the accolades.
Innovation in Action: From Code to Critical Infrastructure
Beyond the awards, Armis has been rapidly expanding the capabilities of its Centrix™ platform, demonstrating the innovation cited by judges. The company recently announced two new solutions that directly address the most pressing themes of RSAC 2026, including AI security and advanced vulnerability management.
The first, Armis Centrix™ for Application Security, tackles the emerging risks within the software development lifecycle, particularly those introduced by AI-generated code. The solution unifies security across the entire development process, scanning code, dependencies, and container images to detect insecure patterns and novel vulnerabilities before they reach production. By automating remediation and providing clear guidance to developers, it aims to drastically reduce false positives and accelerate resolution times.
Simultaneously, the company unveiled Armis Centrix™ for Vulnerability Management Detection and Response (VMDR). This module reimagines traditional vulnerability assessment, which often relies on periodic, disruptive scans. Armis’s approach provides comprehensive awareness across all asset types—including unmanaged IoT and OT devices—by using an intelligent detection model that ingests data from existing sources before conducting targeted scans. This results in more accurate, real-time vulnerability assessment with significantly fewer false positives.
Furthermore, Armis has enhanced its OT/IoT security solution with an on-premises version, catering to organizations with air-gapped environments, such as critical infrastructure and manufacturing facilities. This flexibility demonstrates a deep understanding of the unique operational requirements in sectors where downtime is not an option and where IT/OT convergence presents a major security challenge.
Industry-Wide Validation and Market Leadership
The Global InfoSec Awards are the latest in a series of powerful third-party validations that solidify Armis’s position as a market leader. The company has been named a Leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) Protection Platforms for two consecutive years, a critical endorsement in the world of OT and critical infrastructure security.
This recognition extends to other key areas, with Armis also being named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™ reports for both IoT Security Solutions and Unified Vulnerability Management in Q3 2025. This consistent placement at the top of analyst rankings, which involve rigorous evaluation against competitors like Cisco, Rapid7, and Tenable, provides objective proof of the platform's capabilities and strategic vision.
While competitors often focus on specific niches, Armis's key differentiator remains its ability to provide a single, unified platform that consolidates data from disparate sources. Its agentless nature allows it to discover and secure assets that other tools cannot, effectively eliminating the blind spots that attackers so often exploit. This comprehensive visibility is the foundation of true cyber exposure management.
Visionary Leadership and the Future of AI in Defense
The “Industry Pioneering CEO” award for Yevgeny Dibrov recognizes the vision and execution behind Armis's rapid ascent. A veteran of the Israeli Defense Forces’ elite Unit 8200 and a key figure at Adallom before its acquisition by Microsoft, Dibrov has guided Armis from a startup to a multi-billion dollar valuation by focusing relentlessly on the challenges of securing a hyper-connected world.
This forward-looking vision is also embodied by the company's CTO and Co-Founder, Nadir Izrael. His keynote session at RSAC 2026, titled AI vs. AI: How to Reshape Defense Faster than Attackers Reshape Offense, places Armis at the center of the industry's most critical conversation. As threat actors begin to leverage AI to create novel attacks at machine speed, Izrael argues that defense mechanisms must also evolve, using AI not just for detection but for proactive, predictive security.
The company’s active participation throughout the conference, including a session on communicating security's value led by President Alex Mosher and Vice President Michael Rothschild, demonstrates a commitment to not only building technology but also shaping the strategic discourse around it. By combining award-winning technology, consistent market validation, and visionary leadership, Armis is not just participating in the future of cybersecurity—it is actively defining it.
