The best features Armis offers include the interaction with my manager in Brazil, whose first name is Rui, and who provided a lot of experience, especially Horácio, who used to work for Microsoft. Horácio helped with issues related to Active Directory and provided ideas on how to best integrate the solutions. The aspect of Armis solution that stood out to me was its flexibility to integrate different applications. The collaboration of the team is really important and key for the project to go well and bring the results the customer is looking for. The solution has the necessary resources and connectors that have built many of the rules needed for integration, regardless of whether the application is an Active Directory, an LDAP directory, a database, or even a specific solution such as SAP. It is also flexible enough to build the business rules that apply specifically to that customer. Armis has positively impacted my organization and my client's organization by ensuring that on day one, new users had all the access they needed to work for the applications that were integrated. Additionally, if a user was dismissed from the company, they would lose all access to the integrated applications because Active Directory, which was key for user authentication, would disable their account. I do not recall any specific statistics regarding measurable results, but there was positive feedback from managers concerning the process during the time I was there.

Effective, fast risk reduction with critical threat intelligence updates
The dashboarding and reporting functionality of Zafran Security is an area that definitely could use some improvements. Overall, you get some dashboards and widgets to start with that are helpful, but customization was lacking. It is definitely a weaker point of the product right now, but am confident this will be changing soon!

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The technology is good."
"The tool is user-friendly and helps to detect vulnerabilities."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is asset tracking."
"Armis is very easy to implement due to its agentless design and offers a granular level of visibility for all assets in the network."
"Armis has positively impacted my organization by helping me identify vulnerabilities more effectively, especially on assets that I did not know existed on the network."
"Armis is easy to use."
"The solution’s vulnerability monitoring system is very good."
"Armis is a straightforward and user-friendly solution."
"We are able to see the real risk of a vulnerability on our environment with our security tools."
"With Zafran Security, it integrates with your security controls, allowing you to take that risk score and reduce it based on the controls in place or increase the risk based on different factors, such as if the issue is internet reachable or if there's an exploit in the wild."
"We saw benefits from Zafran Security almost immediately after deploying it."
"Zafran has become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal."
"Overall, we have seen about eighty-seven percent reduction of the number of vulnerabilities that require urgency to remediate, specifically the number of criticals."
"Zafran is an excellent tool."
 

Cons

"Armis doesn't have a back intel feature."
"We have faced issues with the tool's stability."
"Armis could improve its geographic spread and marketing campaigns across regions."
"We face issues during implementation."
"The OpenText solution we used had to improve its development in relation to cloud environments. They have started to offer a version that works on the cloud, but they are really behind in that aspect today."
"After implementing Armis, an organization experiences it as an add-on. Without asset visibility or vulnerability prioritization, it becomes a useless product."
"There isn't anything specific that needs improvement."
"The vulnerability assessment for Windows is not that great. It misses out on a lot of vulnerabilities."
"I think the ability to have some enhanced reporting capabilities is something they can improve on, as they have good reports but we have asked for some specific reporting enhancements."
"The dashboarding and reporting functionality of Zafran Security is an area that definitely could use some improvements."
"Initially, we were somewhat concerned about the scalability of Zafran due to our large asset count and the substantial amount of information we needed to process."
