Digicert completes acquisition of Vercara

Lehi, Ut (USA)

Digicert, backed by Clearlake Capital Group, L.P., Crosspoint Capital Partners L.P., and TA Associates Management L.P., has completed its acquisition of Vercara, a leader in cloud-based services that secure the online experience, including managed authoritative Domain Name System (DNS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) security offerings that protect organisations’ networks and applications. The acquisition expands Digicert’s capabilities to protect organisations of all sizes from the growing number of cyber attacks organisations experience each day.

The acquisition of Vercara complements Digicert’s core PKI and certificate management infrastructure that protects and authenticates people, websites, content, software, and devices. Vercara’s industry-recognised UltraDNS product is an enterprise-grade managed authoritative DNS service that securely delivers fast and accurate query responses to websites and other vital online assets, ensuring 100% website availability along with built-in security for superior protection. Vercara’s Ultra DDoS Protect, Ultra WAF, UltraAPI, and Ultraedge solutions provide layers of protection for organisations’ web applications and infrastructure. By combining with Vercara, Digicert will be positioned to provide customers with a unified DNS and certificate management experience, including more efficient domain control validation and simplified DNS configuration.

“Today we start the exciting work of bringing Vercara into our portfolio to further advance Digicert’s goal of delivering digital trust for the real world,” said Amit Sinha, CEO of Digicert. “We believe the combination of Vercara’s talent and suite of products with Digicert’s technology and platform, history of innovation, and scale will help ensure customers get the highest level of digital trust available.”
