Paris-based Evertrust raises €10 million to accelerate its expansion in the European digital trust market

Paris-based cybersecurity firm Evertrust has secured €10 million in Series A funding from US-based Elephant. The investment will fuel the company's expansion across Europe and internationally, strengthening its sovereign Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM) software suite. This move highlights the growing importance of digital trust and secure digital communication in the European tech landscape. Evertrust specializes in digital trust, offering an integrated platform that combines PKI and CLM capabilities, and is one of only four vendors globally providing this unified solution. The company, founded in 2017, already serves major enterprise clients, including a significant portion of CAC 40 companies, and is profitable. The company's Horizon software automates certificate lifecycles across various environments. The funding will allow Evertrust to strengthen its sales and technical teams and accelerate its network of reseller integrator partners. This expansion is critical as digital certificate use intensifies, particularly with the shortening validity periods for public certificates and the emergence of quantum computing. Evertrust emphasizes digital sovereignty by designing and hosting its solutions entirely in Europe. With its solutions compliant with standards like eIDAS and NIST, Evertrust is well-positioned to meet the growing demand for independent and sovereign solutions. Its recent CSPN certification from ANSSI further strengthens its credibility, especially among public and semi-public organizations. This strategic funding round positions Evertrust as a key player in the evolving digital trust market.
