Malwarebytes has long been a defender of user privacy through its portfolio of consumer solutions, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malwarebytes.com\/vpn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Malwarebytes Privacy VPN<\/a> and its free ad and scam blocker web extension <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malwarebytes.com\/browserguard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Malwarebytes Browser Guard<\/a>. This acquisition further supports the company\u2019s mission to reimagine consumer cybersecurity to protect devices and data, no matter where users are located, how they work and play, or the size of their wallet.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By integrating AzireVPN\u2019s advanced VPN technologies and intellectual property into its platform, Malwarebytes will deliver increased flexibility and enhanced security for customers. AzireVPN developed Blind Operator, a unique privacy feature implemented to completely disable both remote and local access to its servers. This creates a barrier against unauthorized modifications and traffic interception, making it virtually impossible for anyone to modify or tap the traffic on its servers and share any information about a user.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMalwarebytes is a fierce advocate for privacy, and this acquisition reinforces our dedication to driving innovation that protects a free and open internet,\u201d said Marcin Kleczynski, Founder and CEO, Malwarebytes. \u201cAs threats to individuals\u2019 digital autonomy and security grow, we plan to build on AzireVPN\u2019s legacy to deliver cutting-edge solutions.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Malwarebytes and AzireVPN share a vision of empowering users worldwide to combat censorship and safeguard digital freedom. Known for its robust security standards and privacy-first commitment, AzireVPN physically owns and controls its servers\u2014a practice Malwarebytes is committed to continuing.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cJoining Malwarebytes marks an exciting new chapter for AzireVPN and our privacy-conscious user base,\u201d said William Oling, Co-Founder, AzireVPN. \u201cAs pioneers in ultra-private VPN technology, we\u2019ve always set the standard for security and anonymity. Now, with Malwarebytes\u2014a leader in transparency and digital freedom\u2014we\u2019re ready to redefine what it means to stay safe and private online for those who demand the very best in privacy protection.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This acquisition marks another milestone for Malwarebytes. The company accelerated its growth over the past year, acquiring Cyrus, a disruptive innovator in online privacy solutions, and launching <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malwarebytes.com\/identity-theft-protection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Identity Theft Protection<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malwarebytes.com\/personal-data-remover\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Personal Data Remover<\/a> products. It also enhanced its consumer security portfolio with an improved, integrated user experience from desktop to mobile and the introduction of Trusted Advisor with its easy-to-understand Protection Score. Additionally, it launched a free <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malwarebytes.com\/digital-footprint\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Digital Footprint scan<\/a> to help users proactively think about security and their exposed personal data.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information about the AzireVPN acquisition, read the blog: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malwarebytes.com\/blog\/personal\/2024\/11\/malwarebytes-acquires-azirevpn-to-fuel-additional-vpn-features-and-functionalities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.malwarebytes.com\/blog\/personal\/2024\/11\/malwarebytes-acquires-azirevpn-to-fuel-additional-vpn-features-and-functionalities<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To read more about the latest threats and cyber protection strategies, visit the Malwarebytes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malwarebytes.com\/blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">blog<\/a>, or follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Malwarebytes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/malwarebytesofficial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a>,\u202f<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/malwarebytes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a>,\u202f<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@malwarebytesofficial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TikTok<\/a>, and\u202f<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Malwarebytes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">X<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New technology and team will fuel additional VPN features and functionalities&nbsp; SANTA CLARA, Calif. \u2013 November 7, 2024 \u2013 Malwarebytes, a&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":122,"featured_media":3199,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[14,16,17,570],"blog_type":[],"class_list":["post-5454","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-press-releases","tag-malwarebytes","tag-marcin-kleczynski","tag-news","tag-vpn"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.1 (Yoast SEO v27.4) -
