The President of the Republic announced a plan to support the French cybersecurity sector. These computer attacks affect all countries in all sectors, with attacks sometimes with cybercriminal aims and sometimes with a desire to destabilize another State.

On this subject, Emmanuel Macron recalls the progress already implemented by Anssi since 2017, and details the government's additional efforts in this area.

The objectives of the plan announced by the government are to strengthen the cyber security sector and support the digital transition of the players, companies and local authorities affected by this upsurge in attacks.

A four-part plan. The first part will be devoted to funding research and development of a "cutting-edge" technology offering in the security sector, to the tune of 500 million euros. Public funds will finance 290 million, while the rest will come from private players.

The second part of the plan represents 148 million euros and concerns the "strengthening of links in the sector". State investment will amount to 74 million euros.

The third component aims to "support demand", with a plan of 176 million euros. 136 million will be allocated to Anssi through the recovery plan and the rest will be aimed at supporting the training effort.

The final component, valued at 200 million euros, will concern direct investments by the State in cybersecurity companies. Here too, the State is counting on public/private partnerships to support the emergence of new players.

On June 13, Rezopole participated in the Cybersecurity Inter-Associations Symposium in Lyon. Organized by Club 27001 Lyon, this Cybersecurity and New Technologies event brought together associations and national institutions with a focus on the participation of the IT Department, CISO and DPO functions.

The first part of the morning was devoted to a round table discussion with associations such as Rezopole, whose presence was explained by its President, Philippe Duby.

The Internet now has a very important place in the proper functioning of the Information System, especially when it is connected to Cloud platforms: it can be subject to outages (loss of availability), DNS or DDOS attacks (loss of integrity) or traffic usurpation (loss of confidentiality).

Rezopole protects itself from these problems by using its Internet marketplaces (LyonIX & GrenoblIX with ports up to 100 Gbps) and its BGP network expertise (24/7 Managed Services, BGP consulting / assistance / training).
