Since June 6 all users, whatever their operator, have access to the cybersecurity solution designed by Orange. At a time when nine out of ten people say they receive suspicious messages every week, Orange relies on the expertise of Orange Cyberdefense to offer this unique protection against Internet and telephone fraud..
Businesses and individuals alike receive calls every day, type emails or SMS : unpaid invoice, parcels to collect etc., of which they do not know how to analyze the reliability or fraudulent nature. Orange sheds this other light on the situation : only 15% of French people feel completely well protected against digital risk (Opinion Way study for Orange, avril 2024). In 2023, the cybermalveillance.gouv.fr site recorded 280,000 requests for assistance for fraud, including 38% by phishing. “Because cybersecurity is everyone’s business, Orange considers that it is now necessary to put the cutting-edge expertise of Cyberdefense, previously dedicated to businesses, serving the general public. In line with our purpose which is to “give everyone the keys to a responsible digital world”, we want to help users secure their digital uses, whether they are operated on our networks or those of third parties”, underlines André Martin, Managing Director of Orange Réunion Mayotte.
A database powered by a learning AI
Orange Cybersecure is the first participatory portal for checking suspicious links accessible to all. On the Cybersecure portal, any person, whatever its operator, can check, for free, by simple copy/paste, the legitimacy of a site, of a link, an email or text message that seems suspicious. If the link is already known the response is instantaneous. If it is unknown, Orange Cyberdefense experts will quickly check reliability and add the result to its database to continuously enrich it. This technology, based in particular on an AI equipped with a learning algorithm, will create the best database to collectively fight against everyday cyberattacks. Every day new forms of online scams may be submitted to the verification engine for reference..
