Our history

2016

In November 2016, Vista Equity Partners, a leading U.S.-based private equity firm, purchased a majority of Infoblox shares and took the company private. This re-investment in the company and its foundational technology helped jumpstart Infoblox’s emergence as the world leader in on-prem and SaaS-based core networking and security services.

2019

In 2019, to support its BloxOne®️ SaaS platform strategy, Infoblox acquired SnapRoute and their industry-first Cloud-Native Network Operating System (CN-NOS). This technology allowed Infoblox to accelerate the delivery of cloud-native network services, while also radically simplifying the management of essential networking services and security.

2020

In September 2020, Warburg Pincus joined Vista Equity Partners to invest in Infoblox. The investments from these private equity luminaries reinforce Infoblox’s leadership in delivering the networking and security foundations for cloud-first infrastructures.

2000

Infoblox revolutionized network services in 2000 when we delivered the first hardened DNS appliance, bringing a level of security and reliability that network managers could not achieve previously, and Infoblox has been an industry leader ever since.

2005

In 2005, Infoblox debuted the SilverBox, an early nonstop DNS and DHCP appliance solution, and is now recognized as the leader in market share for DNS, DHCP, and IP address management (DDI) appliances.

2007

Infoblox acquired iPANTO in 2007, making us an IPAM appliance leader.

2010

In 2010, Infoblox acquired Netcordia to complement its core network services products with leading technologies for network task automation and automated change and configuration management.

2012

On April 20, 2012, a group of Bloxers rang the bell at the New York Stock Exchange to celebrate the completion of Infoblox’s initial public offering. The event was the culmination of over a decade of teamwork and dedication. Following the IPO, Infoblox’s annual revenues have grown significantly, and the Bloxer community has multiplied.

2016

In 2016, Infoblox acquired IID, a leader in global cyberthreat intelligence, to enhance the company’s security solutions. Also in 2016, IDC named Infoblox the leader in DDI market share.
