Last month, we pulled back the curtain on the future of exposure management, and it's built on a radically simple idea: stop playing defense. Here's what you need to know about the Armis CentrixTM v26.3 release, now generally available across all customer tenants. Watch the on-demand webinar below.

 

 

The Strategy Behind the Release: Shifting to Zero

The threat landscape has changed. Vulnerabilities aren't something you'll manage your way out of anymore: there are too many, they move too fast, and by the time you prioritize them, the clock has already collapsed.

 

Our answer? Shift all the way to zero.

 

That means moving beyond traditional reactive security. It means eliminating exposures before they materialize into threats. It means using AI to make decisions that would take humans weeks to make, and executing on them within guardrails you control.

 

We're doing this through two complementary approaches: AI for Security—using AI to prioritize exposure reduction and automate what's automatable—and Security for AI—helping organizations uncover shadow AI deployments and enforce least-privilege principles continuously across models and agents.

 

All of this runs on our six-pillar solution architecture: Unified Exposure Management, Continuous Vulnerability Detection, Cyber Phyisical Security, Identity and Access Security, Agentic Incident Response, and Cyber Risk & Compliance. All designed from the ground up for autonomous security.

 

What's New in 26.3


Smart Active Query Gets Smarter

We've massively simplified onboarding and optimized credential management. Now you can select multiple integrations at once from a single global view; a huge relief if you're maintaining hundreds of these connections. This is the kind of thing that sounds small until you're the team managing it.

 

Windows Devices That Were in the Dark

One of the biggest gaps in OT environments is visibility into unreachable Windows devices. We've built a downloadable PowerShell script that runs locally and collects security context for devices you couldn't see before. This is early access, and we want your feedback to make it better.

 

PLC Configuration Tracking

Rockwell PLC environments now show you configuration file changes—the current version plus two prior versions—tied directly to alerts and attacks. When something changes on your factory floor, you know exactly what changed and why it matters.

 

Attack Path Prioritization That Actually Works

Traditional methods fixate on CVSS scores. We're doing something different: prioritizing based on what's reachable in your network. A vulnerability on an inaccessible device gets handled differently than one sitting on an open door. Your remediation decisions are smarter because your data is smarter.

 

Physical Maps for Physical Assets

New integrations with Aruba Central, Cisco Catalyst Center, and others let you track asset movement across healthcare floors, manufacturing plants, and everywhere else. Build policies. Understand where your critical assets really live.

 

One Login to Rule Them All

Managing multi-tenant SaaS shouldn't require your administrators to reconfigure everything. We've streamlined session management with one-time SSO setup, rolling out gradually to completion in six months.

 

Plus, we've added 25+ new and enhanced integrations with partners like Dell Technologies, Sophos Mobile, and Avanti Connect Secure.
