TYSONS CORNER, VA, June 30, 2021 — Forcepoint aims to expand its cybersecurity portfolio with its planned acquisition of U.K.-based platform security vendor Deep Secure, which is expected to close in August, pending regulatory review and other customary closing conditions, GovCon Wire reported June 16.

The content, disarm and reconstruction capabilities of Deep Secure will also be integrated into Forcepoint’s Data-first Secure Access Service Edge platform for enterprises as part of the transaction whose value is undisclosed.

“The addition of Deep Secure’s innovative Threat Removal Platform and hardware security to our Forcepoint Cross Domain Solutions portfolio further extends the depth of our defense-grade capabilities to governments and critical infrastructure organizations around the world, who continue to be under siege from nation-state and other attackers looking for financial gain or to ultimately disrupt societies and economies at scale,” said Sean Berg, president of global governments and critical infrastructure at Forcepoint.
