Abidjan, C\u00f4te d’Ivoire – February 23, 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sancfis Group has announced today that it has signed a contract to acquire the Thales Cyber Range. The Thales Cyber Range is a state-of-the-art virtual environment that allows IT security professionals to simulate their environments to detect vulnerabilities. On this dedicated, controlled and secure platform, users can simulate attacks and security incidents in a virtual environment that behaves like a complete IT network, including servers, workstations, routers, firewalls and other equipment.<\/p>\n

Sancfis has therefore just acquired a powerful training tool that will help train the staff of companies and organisations, helping them to deal with the ever-increasing number and sophistication of IT security threats.<\/p>\n

The Thales Cyber Range is a laboratory for simulating customer environments to detect vulnerabilities. It will be installed in six countries where the Sancfis Group already has a subsidiary: first in C\u00f4te d’Ivoire and Burkina, then in Cameroon, Ghana, Niger and Senegal.<\/p>\n

“In an increasingly connected world, cybercrime is spreading everywhere and creates serious dangers for information systems, which have become vital in all areas of activity,” said Louis Diakit\u00e9, Chairman of the Sancfis Group. “Indeed, all the products and services we offer aim to bring our customers greater productivity with maximum peace of mind. The signing of this contract illustrates our desire to provide high-quality training to help strengthen their position in IT security.<\/p>\n
