Security Navigator 2024

The Security Navigator reflects first and foremost the reality of the conflictual nature of cyber warfare. It mirrors the disinhibition of threat actors motivated by state strategies or hacktivism as well as criminal opportunities. In this environment, espionage, sabotage, disinformation and extortion are becoming increasingly intertwined.

The long-term state of war on Europe’s doorstep, the risks of polarization of the Hamas-Israel war, and the rise in tensions in the Indo-Pacific arc all remind us that security remains and will remain even more so tomorrow at the heart of organizations’ technological and human development strategies.

This unstable and unpredictable environment must convince us of the need to unwaveringly pursue a policy of prevention and support for our increasingly interconnected organizations. We must integrate the major comparative advantage of an independent analysis of cyber threats in its technical and geopolitical dimensions in order to refine organizational cyber risk management. Equally we must complement it with a cyber crisis management capability firmly anchored in corporate governance.

I also feel it is necessary to stress the extent to which the sovereignty of our data and its use, as well as the implementation of standards, will gradually become necessary to frame our security policies.

It is in this context that Orange Cyberdefense regularly reviews the state of the threat. Once again this year, it is thanks to the incidents investigated by our security monitoring centers (SOCs and CyberSOCs), the vulnerability scans carried out by our Vulnerability Operations Center (VOC), the reports of our teams carrying out penetration tests, and finally, our network analyses that our Security Navigator 2024 is born.
