response to the needs of strategic enterprises to secure their
essential assets, pursuant to French and European legislation,”
emphasises Michel Van Den Berghe, CEO of Orange Cyberdefense.

customers: At the heart of these challenges is the combined
strength of the Orange Cyberdefense teams and Gatewatcher’s
