KLAS 2026 Report Says Healthcare IoT Security Has Shifted to Outcomes as Asimily and Claroty Lead

Health systems under financial strain now prioritize demonstrable risk reduction over raw device visibility.

Overview

  • KLAS identifies Asimily and Claroty as leaders with the highest market energy, with scores of roughly 96.6 and 92.1, respectively.
  • Buyers evaluate platforms on measurable results such as reduced manual effort, faster remediation, higher actionability, and alignment with security workflows.
  • Usability and training emerge as decisive factors, with some large platforms requiring deep expertise and inconsistent training that can limit day-to-day value.
  • Customers report complexity and training gaps with certain legacy offerings, including Palo Alto Networks and Forescout, which can hinder effective adoption.
  • Integration and automation top near-term priorities, including reliable SIEM and NDR connections, AI-driven prioritization and fingerprinting, device-level microsegmentation, and unified vulnerability management; KLAS also notes ServiceNow’s announced plan to acquire Armis, which is expected to close later in 2026.
