Cybersecurity is a matter for leadership and growth
Rising risks
According to France’s cybersecurity agency (ANSSI), one in two ransomware victims is an SME.
Operations halted, data lost, reputation damaged: the effects last.
A prepared SME absorbs the hit and bounces back. That’s far cheaper than paying the price.
Client requirements
Large organizations now ask for proof of cybersecurity: vendor security questionnaires, contract clauses, supply-chain audits.
Cybersecurity has become a selection criterion.
For your SME, it becomes a commercial advantage.
Cyber regulation
The EU’s NIS2 directive is being written into French law.
It will directly affect more than 15,000 companies and will hold leadership accountable for managing cyber risk.
Even if you’re not directly covered, you may be, through your clients and partners.
Getting ahead of all this means protecting your growth — commercially, operationally and legally.
Modular, tailored cybersecurity support for SMEs
Every engagement starts with a cyber assessment.
We then activate only the modules your priorities call for:
Client requirements • NIS2 compliance • Protecting your growth
Assess
Evaluate your cybersecurity maturity. Take stock: spot the gaps, weigh the risks, and set priorities and an action plan.
Secure
Plan and roll out the action plan, fitting, proportionate, and aligned with cybersecurity best practices.
Handle incidents
Respond effectively to a cyberattack. Get your teams ready to spot the threat, contain the impact, and get operations running again without delay.
Prove it
Put together the documents that back up your cyber practices. Respond with confidence to cyber requirements from clients or authorities.
Govern
Set up cyber governance that fits. Define the policy and the responsibilities, and track how they’re applied.

Frequently asked questions about SME cybersecurity
Yes. We help you understand exactly what’s expected, identify the priority actions, and prepare consistent, professional answers you can stand behind with your client.
We bring a specialized, independent cybersecurity perspective that complements what you already have. Your IT provider or IT department keeps your systems performing, available and maintained day to day. Our role is different: we assess your overall cyber risk, recommend best practices, and support you in your responsibilities as a leader. IT manages the tools; we steer the protection of your business. Both are essential.
No. Our approach relies mainly on focused conversations, an on-site visit, and a review of your existing practices. It’s designed to fit entirely around your operational pace.
No. Our engagements are built for business leaders. We adapt our language to your management reality. Some assessment steps may simply call for a brief technical chat with your IT manager or provider.
Our services are scaled to your company’s size, the complexity of your activities and IT systems, and how urgent your needs are. You get a clear quote before any work begins, with no hidden costs.
