CDC GROUP STRATEGY ON RESILIENCE AND SOVEREIGNTY
We here below reproduce a post by Arnaud Martin, CDC Group Operations risks director, on their choices regarding IT systems. CDC Group is a proud member of the ECA.
Digital transformation must not come at the expense of security or strategic autonomy.
This is why, within the Caisse des Dépôts Group, we combine a digital sovereignty strategy with resilience capacity. We have made the clear choice to deploy French, sovereign, and SecNumCloud-certified solutions for our AI projects, in partnership with actors such as Mistral AI and Oodrive.
These choices are driven by three action levers:
- Protect our data: By aligning our security policy with the requirements of the trusted cloud, we ensure that sensitive data and critical activities remain under control.
- Anticipate risks: With the DORA regulation and geopolitical issues, we have developed a digital resilience index to assess and reduce our technological dependency.
- Innovate with confidence: Mistral AI, hosted on SecNumCloud infrastructures, illustrates our determination to combine performance and sovereignty.
