Plurilock Completes Acquisition of CloudCodes Software Private Limited
Tuesday, August 30, 2022Company Profile | Follow Company
- This transaction represents Plurilock's third acquisition to date
Victoria, BC, August 30, 2022--(T-Net)--Plurilock Security Inc. (TSXV: PLUR, OTCQB: PLCKF) and related subsidiaries, an identity-centric cybersecurity solutions provider for workforces, announced that it has completed its acquisition of certain assets of CloudCodes Software Private Limited, an award-winning cloud access security broker ("CASB") based in India.
With a global customer base, CloudCodes has been a leading provider of unique cloud security SaaS enterprise solutions for protecting email and group collaboration platforms as well as other cybersecurity products including single-sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), and cloud data loss prevention (DLP) solutions.
For its year ended March 31, 2022, CloudCodes generated approximately C$572,000 in product revenue.
The acquisition enables Plurilock to expand its product line, as the Company intends to offer CloudCodes' CASB solution as an early-access product named Plurilock CLOUD, providing its customers with a cost-effective cloud security solution.
The Company expects CLOUD to initially integrate with, and to later absorb, its existing Plurilock ADAPT login authentication product, providing a path to low-friction, high-security SSO and CASB solutions with system-wide, real-time behavioral biometric identity confirmation.
In addition, the Acquisition is expected to be beneficial for CloudCodes' team as they will be able to leverage Plurilock's financial resources, deep security, information technology, AI capabilities and expertise as well as its top-tier sales team to optimize their operations.
Furthermore, the Company's Indian subsidiary, Plurilock Security Private Limited, which is based in Mumbai, India, has obtained a technical product team and a new office in Pune, India.
Overall, the Acquisition is expected to drive Plurilock's sales growth but also, allow the Company to enter the CASB market and gain a larger footprint in the global zero trust cybersecurity industry.
Ian Paterson, CEO, Plurilock Security Solutions Inc.
"We are delighted to have completed the acquisition of CloudCodes," said Ian L. Paterson, CEO of Plurilock. "Given CloudCodes' award-winning CASB solution and international customer base, this acquisition bodes well for our growth strategy as we intend to secure new technology assets to offer more advanced zero trust solutions to our customers and expand our market presence within the global cybersecurity industry. We look forward to welcoming CloudCodes' staff and integrating their innovative products into our robust technology portfolio."
"This transaction represents a major milestone for CloudCodes as we will be part of a fast-growing organization that will supply our unique CASB products to the North American market," said Debasish Pramanik, co-founder of CloudCodes. "We are excited about the new opportunities that await us, and we look forward to working with the Plurilock family of companies in developing the next generation of cybersecurity solutions."
Material Terms of the Acquisition
In connection with the Acquisition, the Company paid CloudCodes aggregate consideration of approximately US$1,451,148 payable as follows:
(i) US$700,000 in cash payable on closing;
(ii) a promissory note of US$300,000 maturing on November 15, 2022; and
(iii) 992,755 common shares of Plurilock at C$0.59 per share. The Consideration Shares were placed in escrow for 18 months to satisfy any indemnification obligations to the Company. The Acquisition is subject to receipt of the approval of the TSXV.
