Armis Recognized on CRN 2018 Emerging Vendors List

PALO ALTO, Calif., July 31, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Armis, the enterprise IoT security company, today announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, recognized Armis in its 2018 Emerging Vendors List, which celebrates "recently founded, up-and-coming technology vendors who are shaping the future of the IT channel through unique innovations." CRN's Emerging Vendors list serves as a valuable resource for solution providers looking to expand their portfolios with cutting-edge technologies.

This is the third recent prestigious industry recognition for Armis. The company was named a Gold winner in the Startup of the Year category in this year's Network Products Guide IT World Awards earlier this month. And in June, Armis was inducted into this year's World Economic Forum Tech Pioneers program for its contributions in the field of cybersecurity.

These honors recognize the fact that Armis is addressing an enterprise problem that is growing alarmingly fast. The IoT era is a challenge for today's enterprises, who can't see 40 percent of the devices in their environment. Armis is the only technology platform that lets enterprises see and control unmanaged and IoT devices and rogue networks accessing their systems, effectively eliminating this security blind spot for all businesses. Traditional cybersecurity solutions on the market are not designed to protect these new unmanaged, IoT devices – known or unknown to IT. Armis' technology goes beyond other solutions in the visibility and flexibility it offers.

Armis has seen rapid growth since it was founded in 2015, with particular momentum in customers and research. Armis has raised a total of $47 million in funding to date, and has signed on leading Fortune 1000 companies as customers, such as Samsung Research America, IDT Corporation, Gett, and Baron Capital Group. Meanwhile, the company's world-class research team announced in September 2017 the discovery of BlueBorne, the most serious Bluetooth vulnerability to-date and one affecting nearly every connected device.

"When we founded Armis, we set out to create a cybersecurity solution built specifically for the IoT age. By providing businesses with an agentless platform designed to protect critical business information, systems, and networks using a business' already existing infrastructure, we are effectively safeguarding the enterprise from this new attack landscape," said Yevgeny Dibrov, CEO and co-founder of Armis. "We are proud to be showcased for both our technological and corporate achievements by these prestigious organizations. The ongoing recognition proves Armis' value to the market, as well as our mission to protect the enterprise."

"The companies on this year's Emerging Vendors list are creating a bright future for the IT channel, consistently developing products to meet the complex demands of the market while positively impacting the bottom line of solution providers," said Bob Skelley, CEO or The Channel Company. "The array of leading-edge products delivered by these organizations will have a lasting impact on the channel for years to come."
