Enhanced asset management and risk identification in cybersecurity training
What is our primary use case?
I used it for asset management in my cybersecurity training program called CyberNow Labs. It was used during security operations and investigations to identify assets within our CNL network and to determine their risk status.
How has it helped my organization?
If I see a device in my CNL network, I can check Armis to verify its legitimacy and its risk status.
What is most valuable?
I like the analytics and the asset management part of it. It determines which assets and devices are at risk, alerts you if there's a risk, and categorizes all assets, including personal computers, mobile phones, servers, televisions, cars, and video game consoles.
What needs improvement?
There isn't anything specific that needs improvement.
For how long have I used the solution?
I was taught to use the tool during my cybersecurity training program called CyberNow Labs.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I've never experienced any issues with stability. I would give it a ten out of ten.

Works efficiently for asset management and has a simple setup process
What is our primary use case?
We used the platform for vulnerability management.
What is most valuable?
The solution made generating documentation and sharing reports via email easy.
What needs improvement?
Like any IT tool, continuous learning and improvement are essential for the solution.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Armis for one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I rate the solution an eight out of ten for stability.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
As mentioned earlier, the platform could slow down when multiple users were active in the same environment. However, this is common for IT tools. Despite this, the product scaled data and functionalities effectively when needed.
I rate the scalability an eight.
How are customer service and support?
I did not need to contact their support team, but they were very helpful when we onboarded the platform.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup and deployment were simple. It was already configured for me, and when I was introduced to it and shown how to manage it, I found it very easy to use.
What other advice do I have?
Armis' automated risk assessment helped us identify vulnerabilities, such as open ports and external factors, that posed risks to our systems. Although we eventually switched to Nmap, the platform effectively highlighted these vulnerabilities.
It is user-friendly for asset management and security, but specific use cases, such as those involving medical devices, may require specialized training.
I advise others to thoroughly learn the platform, which is useful for specific tools like medical devices and IoT. They should use it for at least three to four years to fully benefit from the solution.
Overall, I rate it a nine out of ten.

Provides a very good vulnerability monitoring system, but the implementation is challenging
What is our primary use case?
We use the product in our OT environment to secure IDs. We also use it for monitoring purposes.
What is most valuable?
The solution’s vulnerability monitoring system is very good. Our overall experience is very good.
What needs improvement?
We face many issues while implementing Armis in the pharma sector. Some of the customer applications are not supported well by the tool. The applications do not communicate well if we implement Armis.
We generally face such issues during implementation. We are planning to implement the product in the wind energy sector, but we don't have any idea how to do it. Currently, it is a very big challenge for us.
Products like Dragos, Claroty, and Nozomi provide a much better experience during implementation. If any issues arise, we are told how to resolve such issues during the POC. Armis does not provide the secure remote access feature Claroty provides.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using the solution for more than a year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The product is stable after implementation. It’s a huge competitor in the market.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The product is scalable. We have 85 users in our organization.
How are customer service and support?
The support team is very good. There are some delays sometimes, but it’s normal.
How was the initial setup?
We face issues during implementation.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The tool is cheap.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Armis is a competitor of Claroty and Nozomi. Claroty is much better than Armis. However, Armis is a good IDS tool.
What other advice do I have?
If someone is trying to implement and secure an environment related to every area in their organization, I would not recommend Armis. Some services are not provided by Armis. Using the product for the first time might be a challenge. The training available on the portal is helpful, though. It would be good to categorize the training based on the services we need.
Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises

Provides good asset management and asset tracking features
What is our primary use case?
Armis is an asset management tool that locates devices and checks whether or not they are compliant. It's a prebuilt module that performs vulnerability testing. We also use the tool for risk and compliance.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature of the solution is asset tracking. In the corporate field, some users go to the on-site saying that they misplaced their laptops, and they raise a ticket to provide a new laptop. We find the truth by pulling the serial number and finding the last login, which user has been logging into the system, and whether they're connected to a network.
It's like a security incident endpoint manager. We use the solution to track the asset, find the risk and compliance, and determine whether it is compatible with the security framework.
What needs improvement?
The solution's vulnerability testing could be improved. Some users use VDI, and others use the virtual environment for Azure, AWS, or GCP. We had to embed security tools that could trace that website with the help of security attacks like Cross-Site Scripting. We can perform on the target machine whether the user is connected to the VPN or not. This makes it easier to identify and mitigate the risks as soon as possible.
It can be a spontaneous response to the customer or the management, whether they are a security incident controller or not. It will be easier to access your operation.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Armis for two and a half years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I haven’t faced any issues with the solution’s stability.
How are customer service and support?
The solution's technical support team responds spontaneously because it's already been integrated into the client location. After raising a ticket, the technical support team provides support to the end user within one and a half hours as per their SLA.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup of the solution is very easy and is based on the APIs.
What about the implementation team?
If the platform is rebuilt in the Azure portal and the domain has already been created, the solution can be deployed in only 24 hours.
What other advice do I have?
The risk assessment identifies risks in the system connected to Microsoft CVE. We mitigate the risks automatically in the Armis tool so that they are easier for a technical person to solve on a laptop. The solution is deployed on the cloud, and it's a subscription-based model. The solution is easier for a technician to use, but it's not very easy for a new user from a different background to navigate the portal. I would recommend Armis to other users.
Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
My client wanted to use Armis. Hence, we learned and used it.
How was the initial setup?
Our network engineer completed the deployment quickly. It's doable for anyone. The process involves mirroring traffic to the automation server, which simplifies connections. It will be even easier if you have prior experience with switch configurations. Deployment for the whole infrastructure takes five months.
What other advice do I have?
I was initially involved in networking and configuration tasks for Armis, and we set up some specific use cases for our clients. I rate the overall tool a seven out of ten.
It's a good tool for our IT security. However, if they could implement AI to enhance its capabilities, it would be even better. Additionally, providing automated configurations for certain tasks would simplify our work.
