Cybermois: the month dedicated to cybersecurity
On October 18 2024Cybermois is the French version of European Cybersecurity Month (ECSM), an awareness-raising event held each October by ENISA, the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity. In France, this event is coordinated by ANSSI.
The eleventh edition of Cybermois focuses on "The Risks of Social Engineering". Find out how Telecom SudParis has become a major player in France's digital sovereignty through the expertise of its faculty members, its academic programs and its cybersecurity research.

Sharing and developing best practices in cybersecurity
While the digital transition brings innovation and growth, it also entails risks for businesses and citizens with the emergence of new flaws and vulnerabilities.
These have been increasingly exploited since the global health crisis, as Hervé Debar, Dean for Research and Doctoral Studies at Telecom SudParis, explains in the article "Governments, banks, and hospitals: all victims of cyber-attacks". Digital blackmail, webcam blackmail, ransomware... How to identify and counter everyday threats
During Cybermois, several public bodies and associations, including Telecom SudParis, are working together to offer educational tools to raise awareness of digital security issues among our friends, family and colleagues.
What are the best practices we can follow all year round to protect our connected "selves"?
Security research at Telecom SudParis
Telecom SudParis is one of France's leading higher education institutions in the field of digital security. This is made possible by our research faculty as well as the various short and long academic programs on offer. As a Carnot-certified institution and component of Carnot Télécom et Société Numérique Institute, Telecom SudParis is investing substantial resources in a research platform for its researchers and engineers in cybersecurity, data protection and biometrics.
Hervé Debar, a member of the ANSSI Scientific Advisory Board and Dean for Research and Doctoral Studies at Telecom SudParis, explains, "Our cybersecurity platform provides a vital, risk-free physical base for us to experiment, to keep a record of our research, and to offer solutions that we can't necessarily implement today".

Introducing VARioT: cybersecurity for connected objects
Telecom SudParis plays an active role in the research and development of cybersecurity technologies and pays special attention to IoT security through the European collaborative research project VARioT (Vulnerability and Attack Repository for IoT).
Grégory Blanc, a faculty member at Telecom SudParis and associate professor in Cybersecurity and Networks, was one of the architects of this project. ⇒ Find out more
Télécom SudParis accompagne la stratégie nationale cyber en co-pilotant SuperviZ
Launched on June 21, 2022, the Cybersecurity Priority Research Program and Equipment (PEPR)[FR] seeks to boost the excellence of French research and support growth in the cybersecurity sector. Funded as part of PIA 4 (now France Relance), it presents seven initial targeted research projects, including SuperViz, co-piloted by Telecom SudParis and funded to the tune of €1.6 million.
The SuperviZ project is part of the “systems security” objective of the cybersecurity PEPR, covering the field of “systems, software and network security”. More specifically, it targets the detection, response and remediation of computer attacks, which are classified under "security supervision". The supervision aims to reinforce preventive protection mechanisms and compensate for their shortcomings.
