Pierre Calais, president of the association and NETASQ’s Engineering and Operations Vice President affirmed, “Having been active in the information security field for several years now, I have noticed, as I’m sure my fellow professionals have, too, that innovations are often the fruit of collaborations arising from different perspectives and areas of expertise. Combining the technical approach, the distribution viewpoint and most of all, considering practical scenarios, seems to me the most productive approach. I am therefore particularly confident in the role that the R&D-SSI association plays, which should stimulate the market by developing solutions adapted to current and future information insecurity.”
