Armis Named Leader in GigaOm Radar Report for Operational Technology (OT) Security
10.7.2023 15:00:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Armis, the leading asset visibility and security company, today announced that it has been named a leader in the GigaOm Radar Report for Operational Technology (OT) Security.
“We’re proud to be recognized by GigaOm as a leader in operational technology security,” said Nadir Izrael, CTO and Co-founder, Armis. “It’s critical to secure the hardware and software systems that control physical devices and the industrial processes that our society depends on. Our mission is to ensure the availability, reliability and safety of these industrial control systems by mitigating cybersecurity risks that could otherwise lead to system failures, operational disruptions or physical damages.”
Within the GigaOm Radar for OT Security, Armis is:
- positioned in the Leaders ring, recognized for being a highly scalable platform and for the solution's strong vulnerability management features, practical AI and dynamic segmentation.
- housed in the Innovation/Platform Play quadrant. The Innovation positioning highlights technical innovation while the Platform Play displays a broader platform focus and commitment to a comprehensive feature set.
- recognized as a Fast Mover when evaluating strategy and pace of innovation in this forward-looking assessment plotting the current projected positioning of each vendor over a 12- to 18-month window.
“Of all the vendors we looked at, Armis provided the fastest time to value and the widest coverage. Because it’s cloud-based, Armis is also simple to manage. All these factors made it easy to choose Armis, frankly,” said Mike Towers, Chief Security and Trust Officer, Takeda Pharmaceuticals. “Thanks to Armis, we’ve already uncovered a series of potential cyber risks. Without the Armis deployment, we never would have known they existed. It has already paid for itself.”
Armis is rated exceptional in the report for its:
- SaaS solution which serves large enterprises and manufacturers
- AI technologies for threat detection and rendezvous capabilities which GigaOm considered differentiating and critical in this sector
- product evaluation metrics, specifically scalability and compliance.
Additionally, Armis was recognized as the only OT vendor with FedRAMP Moderate ATO, ISO 27001, ISO 28018 Best Practices and SOC 2 Type II certifications.
“A key differentiator for Armis is its excellent knowledge base, which contains critical information about the billions of devices under its monitoring umbrella, including both the device profile and the expected behaviors of that device,” said Chris Ray, Research Analyst at GigaOm. “This solution is able to leverage that information to quickly identify unusual or abnormal conditions that legacy security tools (like an intrusion detection system, or IDS) would not be able to detect. Armis has a strong focus on healthcare, manufacturing and the public sector. From our point of view, the product complements existing OT security solutions.”
“From an overall security perspective, visibility into the manufacturing area was a big thing for us,” said Shem Stephens, Security Engineer at Colgate-Palmolive. “We needed a tool to see what our plants are doing in order to better support them in terms of their security posture— and Armis fit the bill perfectly. Our auditing team uses Armis to look into areas of opportunity at our plants. And systems engineers use Armis to see when a programmable logic controller (PLC) was last changed out. They have that information at their fingertips now. As our leadership continues to collaborate with Armis leadership, we can create these unique use cases that provide tremendous benefits for specific teams or individuals.”

Blue Matter Launches Behavioral Science Center of Excellence to Decode and Predict Health Care Decisions in a Rapidly Evolving Biopharma Landscape30.9.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release
Blue Matter today announced the launch of its Behavioral Science Center of Excellence (BeSci CoE), a specialized capability within the Blue Matter Insights primary market research team. The CoE applies behavioral science as a strategic lens to decode the “why” behind the decisions made by healthcare professionals, patients, care partners, and other stakeholders. Biopharma decisions hinge on knowing why customers do what they do. Traditional research does a good job of capturing what stakeholders say but often misses the unconscious drivers, biases, emotions, and contexts that shape behavior. The result is an incomplete picture in the moments where clarity matters most, including when developing positioning strategies, planning product launches, and making major lifecycle decisions. "You don't need a survey to tell you that physicians see efficacy as the most important treatment decision driver," said Andrew Pilecki, Ph.D., Senior Market Research Director at Blue Matter. "What our clien
934 Embeds Bluefin Payment Security into Juno to Advance Secure, Connected Hospitality Payments30.9.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release
Bluefin, a global leader in payment and data security, and 934, a global provider of connected payment technology for the hospitality industry, today announced a partnership to integrate Bluefin’s payment security capabilities into Juno, 934’s hospitality payment platform. Hospitality businesses increasingly operate across connected payment environments spanning hotels, restaurants, resorts and other guest experiences. Behind those interactions are multiple systems, workflows and payment technologies that must work together while protecting sensitive payment data. Juno is designed to connect those experiences through a unified hospitality payment environment. By incorporating Bluefin’s security technology into the platform architecture, 934 can provide customers globally with access to PCI-validated point-to-point encryption (P2PE) for card-present payments and tokenization for protecting sensitive payment data. The result is a security-first approach in which payment protection is bui
Blackfuel Emerges From Stealth with More Than $250 Million in Contracted Revenue to Build a Global AI Token Grid30.9.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release

Pioneering the AI Token Grid, Blackfuel is building a network of architecture-specific accelerator clusters connected through a common software and commercial layer, designed to turn dedicated compute into measurable, reservable AI output. By collaborating with AMD and NTT DATA, Blackfuel is developing its European-operated inference capacity, beginning with a GPU cluster currently being delivered in Europe. "The cloud was built around virtual machines. The next infrastructure layer will be built around tokens. We are building Blackfuel to become one of the world's defining AI compute companies, starting with our first deployments in Europe. That means bringing industrial-scale infrastructure, software and capital together so customers can buy intelligence with the same predictability with which they buy pow
Visioneering Technologies' New Contact Lens Trial Shows Landmark Results in Slowing Children's Nearsightedness30.9.2026 15:59:00 EEST | Press release
Visioneering Technologies, Inc. (VTI), a medical device company that designs and markets specialty contact lenses, will announce completed three-year results from PROTECT, a prospective, double-masked, multinational randomized controlled trial evaluating the company's NaturalVue® (etafilcon A) Multifocal 1 Day Contact Lens for slowing the progression of myopia, or nearsightedness, in children. Ashley Tuan, OD, MS, PhD, VTI's Chief Medical Officer, will present the full findings at the American Academy of Optometry's annual meeting in Anaheim. Myopia develops when a child's eye grows too long, causing distant objects to appear blurry, and it typically worsens through childhood. Faster progression is associated with a higher lifelong risk of more serious eye conditions, including retinal detachment and myopic maculopathy, a leading cause of permanent vision loss. Slowing that progression, even modestly, is considered clinically meaningful.3,4 Over three years, children who wore NaturalVu
