The International Cybersecurity Forum (ICF), a European event created in 2007 by the French Gendarmerie Nationale, was held from 28 to 30 January 2020 in Lille. The event brings together companies of all sizes offering security services and products.
On the sidelines of this forum, the government announced the signing of a “Security Industries” sector contract between the State and the 4,000 French security industry professionals.
The contract covers the security for major events, cybersecurity and IoT security, digital identity, “territories of trust” and digital confidence.
The objective is to federate the players in the security sector in order to work with them to master a national and European offer as well as to develop an alternative digital identity.
The section on “territories of trust” sets out the means that must be implemented in order to achieve global solutions that guarantee the security of intelligent cities and territories.
The signing of this contract represents a major event both in terms of the signal of unity of French companies that it sends out to the world and the recognition of the economic potential of the French security sector.
