Designed with a modular architecture and an “as-a-service” approach, the platform empowers users to increase their autonomy and technological control. It comes with built-in security features, such as encryption, key management, network isolation, and access control, while also providing comprehensive traceability of actions and ensuring physical, environmental, and operational security.

According to Frederic Beon, Director of Information Systems and Digital Organization for the Gers Department, a region in Southwest France, "The platform provides us with the necessary security and compliance to meet regulations such as the French state “Cloud Doctrine”, while also enabling us to gain autonomy with our testing and development. Additionally, Cloud Avenue SecNum allows us to significantly reduce time spent certifying our user online services in accordance with the General Security Referential (RGS), thereby optimizing our operational efficiency."
“At Orange Business, our mission is to deliver unwavering trust and control over cloud infrastructures for our customers. SecNumCloud qualification demonstrates our commitment to sovereignty and confirms that our Cloud Avenue SecNum solution adheres to the strictest security and compliance standards. This validation reinforces our dedication toward our customers who are facing the complexities of an ever-changing digital landscape,” says Aliette Mousnier-Lompré, CEO of Orange Business.
SecNumCloud: An essential qualification to enhance security and trust
The SecNumCloud qualification, granted by ANSSI, confirms that infrastructure meets Europe's highest security standards. This ensures strong protection for sensitive data, such as intellectual property or artificial intelligence information. Going through this rigorous process helps reduce legal and technical risks and gives users greater confidence in cloud solutions.
In addition, ANSSI security visas, awarded after detailed evaluations by authorized labs, verify that these solutions are reliable and compliant. These assessments include penetration tests and thorough analyses to identify security measures that are truly trustworthy. This security visa serves as a badge of credibility for organizations that adopt these qualified solutions.
