Case Study: Armis Achieves 90% VPN Cost Reduction with Axis Security

How a global security platform company defied convention, strengthened security and reduced VPN infrastructure costs by 90%

Armis, a leading agentless enterprise security platform for unmanaged and IoT devices, needed to improve remote access, strengthen monitoring, and gain better visibility into SaaS usage while reducing reliance on multiple VPN-based tools. After its new CISO Curtis Simpson reviewed the environment, Armis looked for a Zero Trust Network Access solution that could provide a better user experience and more secure access for employees, third parties, and personal devices.

Axis Security implemented its Application Access Cloud, an agentless Zero Trust solution that isolates users from the network, provides continuous access monitoring, and delivers browser-based access without endpoint agents or major network changes. With Axis Security in place, Armis scaled from hundreds to thousands of users during COVID-19 without added hardware, improved visibility and control, and moved to eliminate 90% of its VPN infrastructure while reducing associated hardware, maintenance, and hosting costs.
