Claroty has been recognised as a Leader in IoT security solutions in the Forrester Wave Q3 2025 report, receiving top marks across 10 assessment criteria.

The independent research firm ranked Claroty highly for both its current offering and strategy, citing its focus on asset-targeted protection and ability to support organisations at different stages of their IoT security journey.

Recognition In Key Criteria

Claroty achieved the highest possible score in categories including device identification and classification, vulnerability assessment, risk posture management, network segmentation, configuration monitoring and deployment options. It also earned top marks for vision, innovation, roadmap and partner ecosystem.

Notably, Claroty was the only Leader in the report to receive the highest score for network segmentation, deployment options and partner ecosystem.

According to the Forrester report, Claroty’s “pivot to asset-targeted protection reflects its vision of enhancing its platform to meet customers at various stages of their IoT security journey.”

It added that the company’s “market-focused teams mean it’s a good fit for customers in different industries who want to secure their IoT assets and OT networks.”

Customer And Analyst Feedback

Forrester highlighted Claroty’s ability to deliver detailed insights into discovered assets through passive monitoring, safe active queries and integration with enterprise configuration management databases.

“This data enables analysts to assess vulnerabilities, gauge risk posture and design effective network segmentation policies that can be tested prior to deployment,” the report said.

The firm also noted customer feedback praising Claroty’s asset discovery and vulnerability analysis, with many highlighting the quality of insights provided.

Company Response

Claroty CEO, Yaniv Vardi, said the recognition reflected the company’s approach to supporting organisations with evolving cybersecurity challenges.

“We’re thrilled to be named as a Leader in IoT security in what is a very competitive field,” Vardi said.

“We believe that our mission-driven approach has positioned us to offer our customers and partners solutions that make a true impact on their business and are built on a vision that they trust us to execute.”

Platform Capabilities

Claroty said its performance in the evaluation aligned with the core elements of its platform, which focus on asset inventory, exposure management and network protection.

Its asset inventory function draws on a wide range of cyber-physical system protocol coverage to provide detailed, centralised views of assets across environments, with flexible discovery methods and change detection.

Exposure management capabilities go beyond standard vulnerability assessment by adding intelligence and context. This enables security teams to prioritise risks and adopt a risk reduction strategy tailored to business impact.

Claroty’s network protection, delivered through its xDome platform, uses a zone-based approach that simplifies monitoring and enforcement of communication policies. The company said this lays the groundwork for Zero Trust principles in industrial environments.
