Case Study: Henry County boosts network security and device visibility with Armis

Fast-Growing Georgia County Finds a Better Way to Discover Devices and Secure the Network

Henry County, Georgia, a fast-growing local government serving about 1,800 employees, needed a better way to see what devices were on its network, keep up with patches and updates, and improve its overall security posture. The county’s IT team was spending significant time manually checking devices and software, even working nights and weekends to stay protected.

With Armis, Henry County gained a centralized asset intelligence and security platform that automatically discovers connected devices, identifies patch status, and alerts the team to unusual or unauthorized connections. Armis helped block problematic devices, reduce the risk of future security incidents, and save substantial time and effort; the county found new uses for it as well, including locating misplaced printers, and even hired a full-time employee to manage the platform.
