ANSSI recommendations on the Cloud
Cloud computing has become essential for both the private and public sectors due to its benefits for digital transformation. However, it poses security challenges for sensitive data and information systems. Attackers target cloud infrastructures because of the concentration of data and extraterritorial laws, which mandate the transmission of client data to authorities.
To help entities choose suitable cloud solutions, the ANSSI has developed recommendations based on the type of information system. It also considers the sensitivity of the data and the threat level. These recommendations serve as a decision-making tool for sensitive and vital information systems. They do not apply to classified systems. They are part of the State's «cloud at the center» doctrine.
ANSSI emphasizes the importance of an impact study and risk analysis before migrating to the cloud, taking into account the maximum threat, specific risks, and legal implications. Selecting security mechanisms is important, as is training technical teams to ensure mastery of migration projects.
ANSSI's recommendations are based on three key elements: cloud offering typologies, the threat landscape, and the nature of information systems. Typologies include commercial and non-commercial offerings. The threat typologies distinguish between strategic, systemic, and hacktivist threats. The SecNumCloud framework proposes security rules, as well as best practices, to ensure a high level of security for qualified cloud offerings.
Paris Olympics under surveillance
The Prefect of Police of Paris, Laurent Nuñez, announced that all private security agents required for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games have been recruited. This key step signifies the authorities' confidence in the event's security. Despite initial concerns about a shortage of agents, the joint efforts of the authorities and the Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games (Cojo) have been successful.
Nuñez confirmed that contracts with security companies have been signed and that the goal of 20,000 agents per day, set by Emmanuel Macron, has been met thanks to the appeal to students, retirees, and civil servants. For the opening ceremony on the Seine, internal security forces will supplement private security missions. Nuñez expressed great confidence regarding the security forces' state of readiness for the Games.

The ICSP is 115.1
What is ICSP?
The Private Security Cost Index (ICSP) is a tool that measures the evolution of labor costs in the private security sector. It serves as a benchmark for adjusting contracts between security companies and their clients based on inflation and wage increases.
What is it for?
- Transparency: The ICSP brings greater transparency to contractual relationships by offering an objective indicator of cost evolution.
- Contract adaptations: It allows for the adjustment of security contract prices based on changes in labor costs, thus ensuring fair compensation for service providers and visibility for clients.
- Negotiation: The ICSP serves as a basis for negotiations between security companies and their clients, offering an objective starting point for discussing price adjustments.
How is it calculated?
The Private Security Company Index (ICSP) is calculated from salary data provided by a panel of private security companies. This panel is representative of the sector in terms of company size, activities, and geographical distribution.
The ICSP is an essential tool for private security professionals. It allows for tracking the evolution of salary costs and adjusting contracts accordingly, thus ensuring a fair and transparent business relationship between service providers and their clients.
