Comodo Acquires DNS.com, Together Roll Out Comodo Authoritative DNS

Security solutions provider Comodo has acquired the managed domain name system ‎services provider DNS.com, and consequently has launched Comodo ‎Authoritative DNS Service.‎

DNS.com is providing integrated services and Internet business solutions that are unique. ‎Comodo and DNS.com have a lot in common and their coming together to expand their ‎security services augurs well for their future growth. The two together would provide ‎their customers better and reliable security related services.‎ DNS.com is set to join the Comodo family of enterprises, while the original team ‎members who established the DNS including former CEO Dan Kimball would join ‎Comodo and carry on with the development of DNS related services.‎

Comodo specializes in providing a range of useful software products meant for ‎enterprises to create trust online, including multi-factor authentication, and ‎PCI/vulnerability scanning.‎

DNS.com has been playing an important role in directing and managing Internet traffic, ‎spanning the availability and related security issues of websites and email.‎ The global network of name servers provided by the company helps all visitors to obtain ‎better performance from websites, content, and related applications, and enable websites ‎to perform optimally.‎

The acquisition enables Comodo to combine with DNS.com’s highly recoverable network ‎and assist customers to obtain instant accessibility and scalability, and DNS.com ‎would benefit from Comodo’s additional security, to protect their customers. ‎DNS.com has recently improved their infrastructure and upgraded their hardware across ‎their network, expanding to places like Seattle, Frankfurt, and Singapore, and offers ‎advanced DNS options to their common customers. All of them have full access to ‎DNS.com’s entire global anycast edge nodes, Web based control panels, security ‎expertise, and JSON API.‎
