Entrust Datacard Becomes “Entrust”
Summary
In recent years, Entrust has expanded from its core physical credential issuance focus to build a robust digital security solution portfolio and market presence. In addition to a sustained long-term investment in R&D, the company has made a recent series of strategic acquisitions, including PKI providers Trustis and Safelayer, authentication provider SMS Passcode, and nCipher, a specialist in hardware security modules (HSMs). Entrust is making significant R&D investments to bring to market new card issuance technology, secure cloud enablement and advancements to its authentication, digital signing, identity management and HSM solutions. The company recently launched its next-generation PKI platform, tailored to meet today’s rising “encrypt everything” demands amidst rising threats, and earlier this year introduced new solutions for passwordless authentication and digital onboarding. With nearly $800M in annual revenue and 2,500 employees, Entrust provides sales and service in more than 150 countries through 50 offices and a global network of more than 1,000 technology and channel partners.
