ServiceNow and Armis have entered into a definitive agreement that will see ServiceNow acquire Armis in a major cybersecurity deal.
The acquisition has been positioned as a strategic move to significantly expand ServiceNow’s security workflow capabilities and cyber exposure management offering. ServiceNow has agreed to acquire Armis for $7.75bn in cash, a transaction aimed at extending visibility, governance and automated response across the full technology attack surface, including environments traditionally underserved by conventional security tools.
ServiceNow operates what it describes as an AI control tower for business reinvention, helping organisations manage digital workflows across IT service management, risk, compliance and security. Its Security and Risk business surpassed $1bn in annual contract value in the third quarter of 2025, underlining its growing focus on cybersecurity as enterprises adopt AI at scale and face increasingly complex threat landscapes.
Armis specialises in real-time, agentless asset discovery and cyber exposure management across enterprise IT, OT, cloud, IoT and medical environments. Its platform continuously identifies managed and unmanaged assets, prioritises the most critical risks and provides actionable intelligence to reduce exposure before incidents occur. Armis is widely used in sectors with cyber-physical risk, including manufacturing, healthcare and critical infrastructure.
Together, the two companies plan to create an end-to-end security exposure and operations stack that connects Armis’ real-time discovery and threat intelligence with ServiceNow’s automated workflows and configuration management database. The combined platform is intended to enable organisations to see, decide and act across their entire technology footprint, delivering proactive rather than reactive cybersecurity.
The acquisition is also expected to significantly expand ServiceNow’s addressable market for security and risk solutions and accelerate its roadmap towards autonomous, AI-native cybersecurity. As AI adoption continues to widen organisational attack surfaces, the combined offering is positioned to help enterprises prioritise remediation and strengthen trust across connected environments.
Additional details highlight that Armis has surpassed $340m in annual recurring revenue, with year-on-year ARR growth exceeding 50%. Founded in 2015, the company employs around 950 people and serves Global 2000 enterprises, including more than 35% of the Fortune 100, alongside public-sector and government organisations worldwide. Armis has also been recognised as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for CPS Protection Platforms.
ServiceNow president, chief operating officer, and chief product officer Amit Zavery said, “ServiceNow is building the security platform of tomorrow. In the agentic AI era, intelligent trust and governance that span any cloud, any asset, any AI system, and any device are non-negotiable if companies want to scale AI for the long-term. Together with Armis, we will deliver an industry-defining strategic cybersecurity shield for real-time, end-to-end proactive protection across all technology estates. Modern cyber risk doesn’t stay neatly confined to a single silo, and with security built into the ServiceNow AI Platform, neither will we.”
Armis co-founder and CEO Yevgeny Dibrov said, “AI is transforming the threat landscape faster than most organizations can adapt. Every connected asset has become a potential point of vulnerability. We built Armis to protect the most critical environments and give both public and private sector organizations the real-time intelligence they need to stay ahead – so they can see their entire environment clearly, understand risk in context, and take action before an incident occurs. Together with ServiceNow, customers will have a powerful new way to reduce their exposure and strengthen security at scale.”
Larry Feinsmith, head of Global Tech Strategy, Innovation & Partnerships at JPMorgan Chase, said, “In the era of AI and agents, the benefits and value will be enormous, but so is the complexity. The combination of ServiceNow and Armis provides a dynamic picture of an enterprise’s connected technology assets and an AI and agentic powered blueprint to secure and enable trusted AI.”
