Orange's cybersecurity subsidiary Orange Cyberdefense has strengthened its expertise in cyber threat intelligence and its presence in the French-speaking Swiss cybersecurity market following the acquisition of SCRT and Telsys.
The dual acquisition will contribute to the growth strategy of Orange Cyberdefense, which now operates in nine European countries, including France, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, UK and Switzerland.
Hugues Foulon, CEO of Orange Cyberdefense, said: “We are accelerating into the seventh cybersecurity market in Europe and thus consolidating the position of the Orange Group in the Swiss market.”
The management and integrated teams of both firms will be retained to strengthen and accelerate their expansion plans, particularly in the Swiss-German territories in synergy with Orange Business Services.
Eric Delangle, Chairman of SCRT and Telsys, added: "This operation will enable us to pursue our leadership project in Switzerland by relying on the size of Orange Cyberdefense, its portfolio of services and its operational model to better serve our national customers.”
