In just one year, the number of reported cyberattacks has increased by 120% world- wide. This figure probably underestimates the real problem, with many cases going unreported. The attacks are also becom-

ing much more dangerous. Hackers are increasingly deter- mined and know their target s information systems better than ever. The results can range from loss of data to total shutdown. The consequences can be dramatic when it comes to industrial facilities and initial infrastructures. Faced with the financial risk and devastating impact that cyberattacks can have on a company s reputation, executives and investors are wor- ried and seeking solutions. But the news is not all bad. Security solutions continue to improve. One example is the new global Cybersecurity offer launched by Capgemini in early 2015. It is based in large part on the expertise acquired during the many cybersecurity missions we have carried out over the past decade, for Cryptolog (a developer of electronic signatures) or for Foyer (the largest insurance group in Luxembourg) for instance.
