Developed by the European Cyber Security Organisation (ESCO), and awarded by Hexatrust, this label aims to promote a stronger and more competitive European cyber security market. It also raises awareness of the strategic value of European cybersecurity companies that develop their business on the basis of trustworthy values.
Digital sovereignty is the ideal towards which everyone is striving, but which seems difficult to achieve without real awareness on the part of everyone and the support of the government… Even today, many European companies store their data on non-European clouds and many european Companies and employees exchange data on a daily basis via messaging systems and applications that collect their data and share them with the US digital giants.
But how can we act so that French and European solutions become a matter of course and a reflex for the entire population? This is a challenge which, without exaggeration, can be described as vital for Europe. It is a challenge that can only be met by a strong economic, legal and social mobilisation. With the Label CYBERSECURITY MADE IN EUROPE, Tixeo hopes to contribute to this mobilization.
