2021. NortonLifeLock and Avast merge in $8.1B deal

U.S. cybersecurity firm NortonLifeLock has acquired Czech rival Avast for $8.1 billion in order to create a global consumer security powerhouse. NortonLifeLock, formed in 2019 as a spin-off from Symantec, says the deal will create an industry-leading consumer cyber safety business and dramatically expand its user numbers thanks to Avast’s 435 million-strong customer base. Avast, founded in 1988, focuses on cybersecurity software for consumers and small and medium-sized businesses and describes itself as one of the largest security companies. However, the company has not been without controversy during its near-25-year history.
2020. Norton acquires Avira for $360M

NortonLifeLock announced that it would acquire the German security firm Avira for around $360 million in an all-cash deal. NortonLifeLock came into existence as a standalone company only last year after Symantec’s enterprise security business was acquired by Broadcom for nearly $11 billion. NortonLifeLock is itself today a publicly traded company with a market cap of about $11.5 billion. Avira, meanwhile, was until April of this year a bootstrapped tech business focusing mainly on security software for consumers. Its products include — like Norton itself — anti-virus software. Avira has a customer base of millions, covering about 30 million secured devices and 1.5 million paying customers. Avira has built its business around a freemium model that Norton said it plans to keep.
