Cybersecurity company Armis has acquired OTORIO, a provider of OT/ ICS cyber security solutions. The acquisition accelerates Armis’ roll out of an on-premise version of its cyber exposure management platform, Armis Centrix.
Armis will fully integrate OTORIO’s Titan platform into Armis Centrix, delivering a solution for critical infrastructure, manufacturing and industrial environments. This unified approach gives organisations a forward-compatible OT/CPS security solution, safeguarding operational resilience while delivering security and compliance for the most targeted and sensitive environments globally.
“The OTORIO team provides deep domain technical expertise, attack path mapping, and an on-premises architecture that will further expand the Armis Centrix platform, bringing us an on-premises version and allowing us to offer a hybrid version for customers for the most complex and critical environments,” said Armis CEO Yevgeny Dibrov. “We are seeing unprecedented demand across all industries but for some specific verticals like oil and gas, energy and manufacturing, customers require a hybrid environment for protection.”
Armis has a history of integrating acquisitions into its Armis Centrix platform and transforming acquired technologies into substantial revenue drivers. Following the acquisitions of Silk Security and CTCI, Armis has achieved a 2000% increase in related revenues, demonstrating its ability to maximise value and accelerate growth.
Armis’ combined solution will bridge the gap between on-premises and cloud-based protections, offering unified oversight. By providing deep visibility and context across all managed and unmanaged devices across the entire environment,
Armis’ new CPS enhancements will:
-
Provide greater customisation and data independence, providing higher levels of local ICS security, with complete control over CPS infrastructure and industrial operating environment;
-
Enforce MFA, SSO, and access policies on all users, devices, workloads, applications, and data across all cloud, datacentre, and cyber-physical infrastructure;
-
Facilitate a powerful tool bridging between pen testing and red team simulated attacks. APM goes beyond conventional scanning and pen testing services to allow entities to align their OT / ICS / CPS defences before a directed attack;
-
Addresses the most stringent regulatory and security frameworks, giving organisations peace of mind in audits and operations; and
-
Further, OTORIO’s deep OT domain knowledge in sectors such as energy, smart cities and utilities complements Armis’ cross-sector experience in manufacturing, transportation and automotive, ensuring tailored solutions for any organisation within whatever requirements they need.
“I am thrilled for our team to be joining Armis at this time and to leverage our deep domain operational context in ICS/CPS environments and help customers achieve complete resiliency and compliant business operations,” said OTORIO CEO Daniel Bren.
This acquisition will also accelerate the rollout of an on-premises version of Armis Centrix, the cloud-based cyber exposure management platform.
In October 2024, Armis announced a new USD200m funding round, which has enabled Armis to rapidly advance and scale its OT/ICS solution.
