Redefining the frontiers of AI and cybersecurity with Orange Cyberdefense's unique partnerships and value

Addressing the key challenges and impacts of Frontier AI models, which have increasingly made the newspaper headlines, was the core meat of this last evening's key event for Orange Cyberdefense.   
On this september the 17th's evening, handpicked clients and partners, including Anthropic and Qevlar AI, gathered in Paris to share the latest views, and upcoming aspects of AI and cybersecurity.  

 

A cornerstone event for AI and cybersecuity

The emergence of cutting edge AI models - particularly the ones able to detect vulnerabilities and exploitable attack scenarios in no time - is further accelerating the cybersecurity challenges that are becoming increasingly pressing for businesses, public authorities and citizens.   

Speed is now a decisive factor. That is why we are working with our partners - Qevlar AI since April 2025 and now Anthropic - to secure our clients at machine speed, explains Hugues Foulon, CEO of Orange Cyberdefense. 

In attendance and on stage last night were Anthropic - which recently opened an office in Paris and others in European of cities – and Qevlar AI, who shared their perspectives and latest developments with our experts and 200 guests, mostly cybersecurity professionals. New attack surfaces and defensive opportunities, the critical factor of speed, the central role of data, the importance of retaining human expertise in the loop, both for technical and ethical reasons were some of the exciting themes tackled by our guests. 

What is happening now is clearly a new chapter in the security for AI and AI for security fields. And Orange Cyberdefense is already plaing a key role in this new reality of threat and opportunity.
