The new platform will provide end-to-end machine identity management \u2013 with flexible and highly scalable certificate issuance and automated deployment of machine identities across complex enterprise and emerging IoT and OT use cases.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\u201cNow more than ever, enterprises must operate in a zero trust world, and machine identity management can no longer be ignored as part of an identity and access management (IAM) strategy,\u201d explained Jordan Rackie, CEO at Keyfactor. \u201cKeyfactor\u2019s 50% year-over-year growth is a testament to the industry\u2019s imperative to secure every machine identity before it leads to loss of brand reputation, business outages or fines. The merger with PrimeKey amplifies the performance of the combined businesses across product offerings, distribution channels, expertise for our customers and large open source communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Machine identity management was introduced by Gartner in its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=Wb0Leqw9wjCSiTv6lrwCMNM1DcXAYxXm0uBEpdWhfH-zGPnSNcnezM10icbYfyqeAvd27I5fwXCQEXCCGMF6h_61QvnDujvFwdFfTyNOVTOcK3wN8oDBrhOfElFqgcA6LS9U1gLVLkAQMggGz8o8LXJtOeOw1t6l7bO_7XPL6Uk=\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Hype Cycle for Identity and Access Management Technologies, 2020<\/a> report and recognized as a \u201chigh\u201d benefit in IAM. Even though machine identities, such as keys, certificates and secrets continue to outnumber human identities (e.g., usernames and passwords), they are often left out of an IAM strategy. Keyfactor customers recognize that cryptography is the critical infrastructure to ensure digital trust and help CISO\u2019s achieve crypto-agility for their digital business.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\u201cOur combined solutions now give customers unparalleled deployment choices including PKI as-a-Service, SaaS PKI (Azure, AWS, GCP), software appliance or FIPS 140-certified hardware,\u201d explained Magnus Svenningson, CEO at PrimeKey. \u201cThese flexible deployment options give our customers the control to operate a single pane of glass across all their machine identities in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Our EJBCA, SignServer and Bouncy Castle solutions are widely adopted by the developer community to integrate security in DevSecOps workflows and will remain open source as we continue to bring cutting-edge innovations to our enterprise customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">PrimeKey\u2019s employees will join Keyfactor, creating an unprecedented mashup of talent in the identity management space. Jordan Rackie will continue leading the organization as CEO and Magnus Svenningson will assume the role of chief strategy officer (CSO) and executive vice president (EVP) of business development. The combined company will have a global presence with offices in the U.S., EMEA and Asia-Pacific. The transaction is expected to close within the next 90 days, pending approval by the Swedish authorities.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\u201cThe market is recognizing that securing machine identities is a fundamental pillar of a modern identity governance program,\u201d said Thomas Krane, principal at Insight Partners. \u201cThe IAM market is shifting its focus from human to machine identities, and this merger positions Keyfactor to stay on the leading edge of this evolution. Independently, Keyfactor and PrimeKey offer a forward-thinking approach to conventional IAM. Combined, the companies deliver a future-proof management solution for every machine identity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">This $125 million growth infusion, led by Insight Partners, adds to its initial $77 million investment in Keyfactor in 2019.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n        <strong>About Keyfactor <\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=jFQkebwcW1-x9uOGpXH5MlRMfvjBeVHrak7UsvIlSR-EtZTETazfiarbmycTxesIio0jKFMJMDsLBISes222TQ==\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Keyfactor<\/a> is the leader in cloud-first <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=ZNnUzYDSMAvm5ejtWHH4CZp9bE_8emir6Mw6s_sAdTYIyDsWR6N9b0s02lSRL3HmVtOlvZfXiTmRKVYuf-6DT_l5SGPzI2AQpe0mqMB9hsvu0OWUAP2Pl3VK0ZK7XBwODbkNKthv3CGqvodNIj0mCA==\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">PKI-as-a-Service<\/a> and crypto-agility solutions.
