HelpSystems announced today that it has become Fortra. Fortra says that its new name reflects the company’s commitment to helping customers simplify the complexity of cybersecurity in a business environment increasingly under siege.

“The cybersecurity industry is always changing, and we’re evolving along with it,” said Kate Bolseth, CEO, Fortra. “This is a pivotal, exciting moment for us as we’re defining a new, bold path forward that will bring positive change to the industry and our customers. Everyone at Fortra is rallying behind this movement to tackle seemingly unmanageable security challenges and alleviate the constant worry many of our customers face. As Fortra, we want our customers to think of us as their cybersecurity ally, with them every step of the way.”

In recent years, Fortra has grown to more than 3,000 employees with offices in 18 countries and over 30,000 global customers. The company shifted its focus to cybersecurity and automation, building a portfolio with key capabilities in data security, infrastructure protection and managed security services.
