With the vision to make the internet a safer space for everyone, and a mission to make digital security and online privacy simpler and accessible for non-technical audiences, Uzair Gadit and his fellow co-founders started PureVPN in 2006 and grew the company to serve over 3 million internet customers today.
Designed with a focus on Youser-centricity and addressing 21st century needs connected to digital security and online privacy, the VPN company is officially evolving into a parent brand, called PureSquare (or Pure2), on Safer Internet Day, 7th February 2023.
With the advent of technological advancements, threats to digital safety and privacy continue to grow each day. The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in an unprecedented increase of internet usage and online activity. The risk of exposure to digital attacks increased due to lockdowns and social distancing measures, as many people were forced to work, learn, and socialize online.
According to a report by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), there has been a 300% increase in reported cyber incidents since the start of the pandemic.
Commenting on the state of affairs brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Founder & CEO of PureSquare Uzair Gadit shares…
“The pandemic created both an opportunity and a challenge; how does one make digital security & online privacy into an accessible choice for global internet users? When lockdowns began, we knew that an evolution in user behavior and landscape was inevitable. In the face of increasing complexity, our goal kept becoming more straightforward; Ask users what they want from their products, and deliver on those needs in the form of simple solutions. The results of performing these actions meticulously over the past two years has led us to the birth of PureSquare.”
To address Youser safety and privacy in a new age, the digital security and online privacy company is making significant investments in its infrastructure. The aim is to ensure an enhanced sense of security while navigating digital realms, and to provide a more personalized and user-oriented experience across tools, platforms & services.
“At PureSquare, we realize that there is no silver bullet to designing solutions for digital security and online privacy. In a post-pandemic world, with our work and personal lives increasingly blending, new vulnerabilities are being created every day and therefore a squaring approach is essential for us to consistently keep adding layers of protection against threats which impact our personal and professional safety. Making the world a safer place with peace of mind and a sense of security is the vision that guides us to deliver best-in-class solutions to some of today’s most challenging concerns” adds Uzair Gadit.
