Warburg Pincus and Vista Equity Partners Close Infoblox Transaction

Infoblox will double down on innovating cloud-managed networking and security services for the borderless enterprise

Santa Clara, Calif. — December 1, 2020 — Infoblox Inc., the leader in Secure Cloud-Managed Network Services, today announced the close of its investment from Warburg Pincus, with Vista Equity Partners (“Vista”) continuing as an investor and equal partner.

“As the modern enterprise becomes increasingly dispersed with more connected devices and remote workers, organizations are looking for solutions to simplify and scale an increasingly complex network,” said Jesper Andersen, CEO of Infoblox. “Customers need cloud-native networks that stretch securely across multiple clouds and hybrid environments, which our BloxOne DDI and BloxOne Threat Defense platforms were built to deliver.”

“This transaction is a major milestone for Infoblox and we’re proud of what it says about our business and our employees. I would like to thank Bloxers past and present for their tireless work bringing to market the best DDI and foundational security solutions for customers seeking robust on-premises and cloud-managed services. Infoblox is disrupting how networking and security is delivered and we are delighted to partner with Vista and Warburg Pincus on our next phase of growth — enabling the next-level network experience,” added Andersen.
