What archTIS does

archTIS Limited (ASX: AR9; OTC: ARHLF) is an Australian-headquartered cybersecurity software company founded in 2006/2007, specializing in data-centric secure collaboration and information sharing for government, defence, intelligence, and critical infrastructure customers. The company is headquartered in Canberra and operates in Australia, the United States, and the United Kingdom, with U.S. presence materially expanded via the 2025 acquisition of Spirion. archTIS is publicly listed on the ASX under the ticker AR9 and also trades on OTC markets as ARHLF.

The company's core technology is its proprietary Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) policy engine, which evaluates real-time user attributes (security clearance, nationality, organisation, location, device, time of day) and data attributes (classification, sensitivity, labels) to enforce fine-grained, dynamic access decisions at the data layer. This engine underpins the full product portfolio: Kojensi (an IRAP-assessed, Australian Federal Government PROTECTED-accredited multi-level security collaboration platform supporting classified information sharing up to TOP SECRET, available as SaaS, Enterprise on-premises, and ruggedised Field variants); NC Protect (dynamic ABAC-powered data discovery, classification, and protection for Microsoft 365, SharePoint, file shares, Nutanix Files, and NetApp ONTAP, with Microsoft Sentinel and Splunk integrations for analytics); NC Encrypt (HYOK/BYOK key management with FIPS 140-2 compatible AES-256 encryption); Trusted Data Integration (TDI) for secure structured data integration and policy orchestration; and the Spirion-acquired Sensitive Data Platform providing DSPM capabilities. Accreditations include IRAP PROTECTED, FedRAMP, FIPS 140-2, and DoD 5015.2-STD v3 records management.

archTIS operates a B2B enterprise software model combining recurring SaaS subscriptions (Kojensi SaaS, NC Protect on Azure Marketplace with MACC eligibility), on-premises software licensing (Kojensi Enterprise), and professional services for implementation and data pipelines. Go-to-market is consultative and event-driven, targeting government and defence procurement cycles via direct enterprise sales, Microsoft and NetApp partnership channels, Defence Systems Integrator resellers, and presence at AFCEA TechNet International, Eurosatory, and Australian Defence Industry Awards. H1 FY2026 revenue was $6.1M (120% YoY growth) with ARR of $16.3M, the inflection driven primarily by full integration of the Spirion acquisition and identification of $4.5M in cost synergies.

Expansion highlights7 records

Broad incumbents

• Microsoft Purview (Microsoft Corporation): Microsoft's native data security, classification, and information protection suite within Microsoft 365 and Defender. Purview is archTIS's largest partner and most direct competitive threat, with overlapping capabilities around sensitivity labeling, encryption, and DLP across the same Microsoft 365 surface that NC Protect extends.
• Palo Alto Networks: Diversified cybersecurity platform with growing data security and Prisma Cloud DSPM capabilities alongside Cortex and Unit 42 offerings. Palo Alto Networks competes with archTIS at the platform level through bundling and cross-sell, particularly for defense and large enterprise accounts.
• Okta: Identity and access management platform with growing capabilities in privileged access, identity governance, and ABAC-style policy. Okta provides an alternative path to achieving attribute-based access control that organizations may evaluate alongside NC Protect's data-layer approach.

Direct peers

• AvePoint: Provider of Microsoft 365 / SharePoint data protection, governance, and migration solutions. AvePoint competes directly with NC Protect across SharePoint on-premises and cloud, with comparable positioning around information barriers, dynamic access, and compliance reporting for regulated enterprises and agencies.
• Varonis Systems: Data-centric security platform with strong data classification, access governance, and insider threat analytics across file shares, SharePoint, and Microsoft 365. Varonis overlaps with NC Protect on ABAC-style access policy enforcement, classification, and audit, while offering similar defense and government GTM.
• BigID: Data intelligence platform covering discovery, classification, and data security posture management (DSPM). BigID competes head-on with the acquired Spirion product line and complements archTIS's NC Protect in adjacent discovery workflows across cloud, on-premises, and endpoint data.
• Netwrix (Stealthbits): Data security and access governance vendor (Stealthbits acquired by Netwrix) focused on file-share, SharePoint, and Active Directory data classification and access control. Netwrix Stealthbits competes directly with NC Protect's ABAC and granular access enforcement for regulated workloads.
• Forcepoint: Data-centric security vendor specializing in trusted access, insider threat, and cross-domain solutions for defense, intelligence, and government customers. Forcepoint is one of the closest direct competitors to Kojensi's classified file sharing and multi-level security posture.
• SailPoint: Identity and access governance platform that increasingly extends into data entitlement and access policy. SailPoint overlaps with archTIS's policy-driven access controls, particularly in regulated industries where governance of user and data attributes drives compliance outcomes.

Emerging players

• Cyera: Fast-growing DSPM provider focused on AI-driven data discovery and classification across cloud and SaaS environments. Cyera is the most direct emerging competitor to the Spirion DSPM offering, and a credible threat in commercial segments that archTIS is expanding into.
