Armis Named Platinum Winner of 2023 ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Award

Armis, the asset intelligence cybersecurity company, today announced that Armis Centrix™ was named a platinum award winner for Best Vulnerability Management Solution in American Security Today’s 2023 ‘ASTORS’ Awards, the pre-eminent U.S. Homeland Security Awards Program.

“We’re honored to be recognized with this highly coveted award,” said Brian Gumbel, President of Armis. “It’s critical that U.S. government agencies prioritize having a forward-leaning cybersecurity posture to help protect critical public sector assets from malicious attacks of cybercriminals and nation-state actors. Armis is committed to playing a key role in helping government entities to keep critical infrastructure, economies and society safe and secure 24/7.”

Now in its eighth year, the ‘ASTORS’ Awards recognize industry leaders of Physical and Border Security, Cybersecurity, Emergency Preparedness – Management and Response, Law Enforcement, First Responders, as well as federal, state and municipal government agencies in the acknowledgment of their outstanding efforts to Keep our Nation Secure.

The ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Program is specifically designed to honor distinguished government and vendor solutions that deliver enhanced value, benefit, and intelligence to end users in a variety of government, homeland security and public safety vertical markets.

“As the nation continues to respond to escalating threats from home and abroad, the innovative solutions being implemented to meet those threats has led to tremendous growth in the field of Homeland Security,” said Michael Madsen, co-founder and publisher of American Security. “Today, the United States is increasingly focusing on protecting IT/cyber security networks and they are calling on innovative companies like Armis to help them do so.”

Every day, federal, state and local governments rely on IT infrastructure to support and power mission critical activities. Continued migration to the cloud, the move to mobile and BYOD, the convergence of IT, OT and IoT, and the sharp increase in remote work have changed how government agencies must approach cybersecurity. It’s essential that these entities no longer depend on conventional perimeter-based defenses to protect critical systems and data.
