The Stormshield technology partner ecosystem
Sharing and co-operation as essential weapons in the fight against cybercrime
The Stormshield technology partner ecosystem
The world of cybersecurity features a wide range of actors with diverse and complementary skill sets. Co-operation, information sharing and partnerships are vital assets when facing an explosion in threats and sophisticated cyberattacks. For this reason, Stormshield has decided to engage in a policy of openness towards this ecosystem and co-operation with other actors, with the aim of developing joint solutions, pooling threat information, collectively improving our customers’ defences, advancing the state of the art in terms of cybersecurity and taking full responsibility for its own role in making cyberspace a harmonious, sustainable environment.

Strong commitment is in our DNA
As the result of the merger between two French companies – Arkoon and Netasq – it is hardly surprising that Stormshield’s strongest roots are in France.
At regional level, our teams are dedicated and committed participants in the monthly meetings of the CLUSIR Nord de France information security association, alongside security experts from the Hauts-de-France region. The goal of this association is to promote in-depth reflection and discussion on best practices for raising awareness and contributing to the improvement of information systems security.
Stormshield is also involved in raising awareness of cyber risks among financial and management professionals via the Association nationale des Directeurs Financiers et de Contrôle de Gestion (DFCG) national association’s network, particularly through the work of its President and CEO, Pierre-Yves Hentzen. As the former Chairman of the Auvergne-Rhône Alpes region’s DFCG and now administrator of the Association, he is a regular participant in conferences, forums and lunches, where he shares his experience of the cyber world.
As part of this same philosophy of raising awareness of cyber risks among other less aware stakeholders, Stormshield has been involved for several years in the Mouvement Génération RH (MGRH), particularly through the work of Sylvie Blondel, the company’s Director of Human Resources. Sylvie is an active member of the Club, taking part in working groups and events to raise awareness among the Human Resources profession, as they are key players in promoting improved digital hygiene.
At national level, Stormshield is a member of CLUSIF (French Information Security Club). The aim of this association is to promote exchanges of ideas and feedback regarding information security.
Since 1998, at the same national level, Stormshield has been actively increasing its support by providing financial assistance to the FreeBSD Foundation, in order to help it accelerate its development and its recruitment of new developers.
Stormshield is also a long-standing member of the TECH IN France association, the voice of the digital industry in France. Here, various company employers take turns to participate in workshops, surveys and content creation initiatives.
At the same time, Stormshield is an active supporter of the “Action contre la cybermalveillance” (ACYMA) anti cyber-malware public interest group. In late 2017, Stormshield officially launched its national assistance system for victims of cyber attacks with the Cybermalveillance.gouv.fr platform. Its objective: to play an awareness-raising, preventative and support role in terms of digital security among the French population.
Lastly, in late 2018, Stormshield also announced its official support for the Paris Appeal for trust and security in cyberspace, launched by the President of the French Republic.
