Company mission
PerimeterX's mission is to empower customers to grow their digital businesses with a portfolio of application security solutions that keep their consumers and brands secure.
Our take
The cybersecurity market is going through a period of immense growth, drawing record amounts of venture funding as ransomware, data breaches and bot attacks accelerate. However, with the overall economy going through turbulence, there have been a number of high profile mergers and acquisitions in the tech industry as companies look to safeguard their market positions.
PerimeterX is also heading down this path, having recently merged with Human Security, which was itself acquired by Goldman Sachs’ merchant banking division, ClearSky Security, and NightDragon in 2020.
Considering that both companies focus heavily on preventing bot and automated fraud attacks, it’s a merger that makes a lot of sense. In addition to this, the fact that Goldman Sachs is in the picture should offer it plenty of financial protection in the event of any future economic turmoil.
