Internet security company Comodo has purchased DNS.com, an aptly named provider of hosted Domain Name System (DNS) services. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.
DNS.com no doubt benefited greatly from that three-letter domain name in terms of branding.
Comwired, as the company was previously called, acquired the domain in a private transaction less than a year ago.
With the acquisition of the managed DNS services provider, Comodo is launching a new service called ‘Comodo Authoritative DNS’ as it enables the company to roll out secured DNS services for its existing business customers.
Comodo posits that the acquisition will also boost its relationships with datacenters around the world, in order to deploy additional points of presence near major population zones, adding to DNS.com’s network.
DNS.com will join the Comodo family of brands and the founding team – including former CEO Dan Kimball – will join Comodo and keep developing managed DNS services.

Thanks, South!!
We are excited for all of the new possibilities that this is going to bring to our clients and our company. COMODO is very well known, stable, and innovative so it made for a really good fit.
There is a lot of cool potential with security products and the upcoming DNSSEC implementation so hopefully you'll continually see our company in the headlines as we strive to make waves.
And I have to say that DNS.com, the domain name, was a huge boost for us. I think this story truly shows the power of domain names and the huge advantage they have in differentiating oneself from the rest of the competition.
i like their free anti virus and firewall.
