Vannes – April 22, 2021 – The National Institute for Territorial Cybersecurity and SEKOIA, a French deeptech company specializing in cyber threat anticipation, innovation enthusiast and leading player in Threat Intelligence, have entered into a strategic partnership for the implementation of joint actions and joint work programs, in the service of the cybersecurity of rural territories and their institutional components, economic and infrastructural.
The INCRT, whose strategic contribution is based on observation, pooling and training, aims to offer an operational alternative, making it possible to implement a secure and trusted digital transformation, adapted to each territory. This transformation, sometimes made complex within rural territories, will now be facilitated thanks to SEKOIA. Indeed, the company publishing an all-in-one cybersecurity solution (anticipation – detection – reaction) – will equip each community on a case-by-case basis. SEKOIA will also provide its support and operational forces for incident response in the event of proven cyberattacks.
In addition to contributing significantly to the acceleration of projects for rural territories, this partnership combines digital transformation, cybersecurity and resilience with pooling, economic attractiveness and job creation.
“The rise of territories in the cyber field will only happen if they are able to come together in dedicated organizations allowing them to pool their needs and resources. Our partnership will make it possible to couple the strategic approach with the provision of accessible solutions deployed by a partner on a human scale and with recognized competence” explains Eric Lambert, CEO of INCRT
This partnership aims to deploy an offer of affordable solutions within Resource Centers for Territorial Cybersecurity, taking into account the constraints and context of each rural territory.
“Aware of the current problem facing local authorities, we have chosen to join forces with INCRT to propose a rapid and useful deployment of our XDR solution. SEKOIA already offers these offers to large structures but this partnership will allow us to reach the entire rural network in order to bring them a turnkey cybersecurity solution compatible with digital transformation programs. ” explains David Bizeul, CTO of SEKOIA.
