Cybersecurity giant Armis has secured $435 million in pre-IPO funding, valuing the company at $6.1 billion. The round was spearheaded by Goldman Sachs Alternatives’ Growth Equity division, with strong backing from CapitalG and Evolution Equity Partners, alongside existing investors.
The raise underscores Armis’s growing dominance in the cyber exposure management space, as it accelerates toward $1 billion in annual recurring revenue (ARR) and prepares for a public offering.
The new capital marks a pivotal moment for the company, which recently crossed $300 million in ARR, posting 50% year-over-year growth. Armis now protects more than 40% of Fortune 100 companies, including seven of the top ten, serving industries such as healthcare, finance, manufacturing, and government.
This funding round will fuel product innovation, market expansion, and strategic acquisitions as part of the company’s three-year growth roadmap. Over the past two years, the company has completed three acquisitions, extending its capabilities across cloud security, AI-driven defence, and operational technology. These integrations are already contributing millions in incremental revenue, solidifying Armis’s position as a unified platform for managing complex cyber risks.
The company’s strategy blends organic growth with targeted M&A, ensuring a broader technology footprint while maintaining speed and agility. With cyberattacks on critical infrastructure rising globally, Armis is positioning itself as an indispensable partner for enterprises seeking real-time protection across hybrid and connected environments.
Securing the unseen from ground to cloud
Founded in 2016 by Yevgeny Dibrov and Nadir Izrael in California, Armis’s mission is to secure the unseen connections that power modern life. Its flagship Armis Centrix™ platform provides continuous visibility, intelligence, and control over every digital asset, enabling organisations to detect, manage, and mitigate risks before they escalate.

From hospitals and airlines to government agencies, its technology keeps essential services running securely, a necessity in today’s perimeter-less world.
What’s next?
With strong investor confidence and expanding enterprise reach, Armis is setting the stage for one of the cybersecurity industry’s most anticipated IPOs. It is a milestone that could redefine how organisations manage risk in an increasingly connected world.
Yevgeny Dibrov, CEO and Co-Founder of Armis: “This round marks another defining moment in our journey to build a category-defining cybersecurity company. Our growth proves that organisations are embracing a unified, exposure-based approach to security, and the round signals investors’ belief in Armis as a leader in cybersecurity. At the heart of Armis is a team driven by one goal: putting our customers first.”
Irit Kahan, Managing Director in Growth Equity at Goldman Sachs Alternatives: “Armis is a truly differentiated cybersecurity platform with exceptional growth momentum. We believe the platform is redefining cyber exposure management by providing a comprehensive and unified layer of visibility, turning blind spots into sources of intelligence. Led by an exceptionally strong founding team, with a customer-centric culture, the company has successfully partnered and is growing with the largest global enterprises and public sector organisations.”
Derek Zanutto, General Partner, CapitalG: “Ever since our first investment in Armis back in 2019, we’ve repeatedly doubled down on the company, as our conviction in its technology, its leadership, and its potential has only grown stronger. Armis is on the path to building a multi-generational cybersecurity titan. We feel privileged to continue partnering with Yevgeny, Nadir, and the entire leadership team as they accelerate toward the goal of $1 billion in ARR and, eventually, an IPO.”
