IBM and VeriSign will announce today a global alliance to provide large corporations with internet security services for e-business that could generate more than $1bn over a three-year period.

The two companies are to combine their technologies and services to offer security services aimed at the 5,000 largest companies around the world.

IBM will also provide VeriSign with integration services and computer systems to equip large data centres that support the initiative. VeriSign has agreed to use IBM computer systems instead of systems from Sun Microsystems.

"We have a strong brand name among corporations but we don't have everything," said Eli Primrose-Smith, head of global security solutions at IBM. "VeriSign has a strong presence in the trusted systems area."

VeriSign is the leader in offering digital security certificates. These are widely used on the internet to identify users and to authenticate transactions. Tom Foremski, San Francisco
