The origins of NortonLifeLock trace back to the founding of Peter Norton Computing in 1982, which was later acquired by Symantec Corporation. In November 2019, the consumer-focused division of Symantec was spun off as NortonLifeLock, establishing it as an independent, publicly traded company. The spin-off allowed NortonLifeLock to concentrate on expanding its consumer and small-business cybersecurity offerings while pursuing strategic partnerships and acquisitions to enhance its technological capabilities.

Headquartered in Tempe, Arizona, NortonLifeLock serves millions of customers across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia Pacific and Latin America. The company maintains a presence in key markets through regional offices and invests in research and development centers to stay ahead of emerging cyberthreat trends. Its subscriber base spans individual consumers, families and small businesses seeking affordable, easy-to-use digital safety solutions.

Since January 2020, Vincent Pilette has served as President and Chief Executive Officer, leading efforts to drive product innovation and global expansion. Under Pilette’s leadership, NortonLifeLock has prioritized integration of its cybersecurity and identity protection offerings into unified platforms, strengthened its threat intelligence capabilities and advanced partnerships with device manufacturers and service providers. The company continues to focus on enhancing the user experience, broadening its service portfolio and reinforcing its position in the consumer cybersecurity market.
