Cybersecurity that satisfies ANSSI and CNIL — together, from Paris.

From Paris, we work with French enterprises navigating a dense regulatory landscape — GDPR supervised by the CNIL, the French NIS2 transposition effective 2024, the LPM regime for OIVs and OSEs (operators of vital importance and essential services), and ANSSI reference frameworks including SecNumCloud, HDS for healthcare data hosting, and PSSIE for the state. The French specificity comes from the dual ANSSI / CNIL supervisory model and a rich ecosystem of national qualifications — health-data hosts must be HDS-certified, and public administrations are migrating to SecNumCloud-qualified cloud providers. We structure evidence to PSSIE expectations and run European SOC operations from Paris.

FAQs · France

Are we classified as OIV or OSE under LPM and NIS2?

OIV and OSE designations are made by sector-specific order. With the NIS2 transposition the scope expands significantly to essential and important entities. We run a 30-minute scoping assessment.

Do we need SecNumCloud to host public-sector data?

For certain sensitive administrative processing, the "cloud at the centre" doctrine requires SecNumCloud-qualified solutions. We support preparation for the qualification process.

How do you coordinate CNIL and ANSSI notifications during an incident?

A personal data breach triggers a 72-hour CNIL notification; a NIS2 incident triggers a 24-hour ANSSI notification. Our SOC produces both notifications in parallel.
