Orange Enters Defense & Security to Fortify Digital Frontlines

Orange is stepping up its game with the launch of its new Defense & Security Division, aiming to bolster national digital infrastructure. With a moniker like Direction Défense & Sécurité (DD&S), this initiative is no small feat, assembling hundreds of specialists ready to fortify the digital operations used by defense and homeland security entities.

This strategic move by Orange is addressing several critical challenges. It seeks to build strong connectivity solutions, safely integrate civilian and military networks, and protect sensitive information. Not just stopping there, Orange is also keen on enhancing emergency communication systems and tapping into advancements in artificial intelligence and cybersecurity. Teaming up with Orange Cyberdefense, a leader in cybersecurity, DD&S is set to cover both France and a swath of European territories with its protective digital embrace.

With the backing of Orange Business’s legacy in digital infrastructure, including a robust 5G network, extensive fiber optics, and comprehensive satellite support, the division is well-equipped. Add to that Orange Cyberdefense’s prowess in cyber threat detection, and they’re packing a hefty punch.

Leadership and Vision for a Secure Future

Nassima Auvray, helming this venture, is thrilled to lead a team passionate about crafting bespoke, robust solutions for defense and security sectors. “Our edge lies in leveraging Orange’s cybersecurity finesse, AI talent, and emerging quantum tech to meet sector demands head-on,” Auvray explained.

Aliette Mousnier Lompré, CEO of Orange Business, underscored the complexity of the defense arena. She sees this new division as a testament to Orange’s dedication to channeling its technological prowess and operational excellence to empower the key players in this essential sector.

In a rapidly evolving digital landscape, this new division is poised to deliver innovative, comprehensive solutions to support national security.
