In a world where technology prevails and exchanges and data storages are fully digitalized, cybersecurity is a key element in an organization’s resiliency.

Resiliency is the ability of organizations, relying more and more on computing tools, to “survive” in case of IT tools’ failures. Considering the current cyber threats, this aspect has never been so important and preoccupying for Security & IT Experts. In fact, Belgium registered a rise of 30% in cybercrimes between 2018 and 2O19 (source: ccb.belgium.be). Choosing the right cybersecurity partner is now a major challenge.
