Alcyconie selected by Breizh Fab

Develop your resilience and your ability to react to a crisis or a cyber crisis thanks to Alcyconie’s support

If the impetus is regional, the dynamic is national. It is no longer necessary to demonstrate that the Breton industry supports many talented and innovative SMEs in their projects. Breizh Fab is a regional initiative born from the desire to anticipate and cope with economic, political, cultural, financial and social changes.

Crisis management is at the heart of these changes and affects both the private and public sectors. It is a question of maintaining a realistic, pragmatic and appropriate security strategy in the face of the permanent challenge posed by new risks, including that of digital technology. In its support missions before, during and after the crisis, Alcyconie joins Breizh Fab in the common dynamic.

The Breizh Fab program

Breizh Fab includes a budget of 6 million euros in funding allocated to the regional industry, over a period of 5 years, for 540 industrial projects. It serves the following ambitions:

• Supporting the transformation of the Breton industrial sector,
• Strengthen synergies between manufacturers,
• Economic players and politicians, and to promote industrial Brittany.

To meet the challenges of digital technology

The increase in cyberattacks and their widespread infiltration in all industrial sectors (agri-food, health, luxury, aeronautics, transport, agriculture, etc.) requires crisis management support.

Cyber crises are not only the prerogative of large companies, and target, randomly or designately, all organizations regardless of their size: ransomware, data leaks or SCADA attacks, which can lead to the complete shutdown of production: these terms are in the news and represent a complex reality for companies.

Whether it is a question of anticipating through training, acting at the heart of the crisis, and bouncing back at the end of the crisis, Alcyconie offers the definition of crisis systems adapted to the needs of the company and the risks of which it is the target, and scenarios, also known as crisis exercises, whose objective is to acquire the reflexes that will make it possible to contain the effects of a crisis, to test the responsiveness and effectiveness of the organization in a degraded situation.

Which companies are eligible and how much does the Breizh Fab program cost for a company?

The support is aimed at Breton SMEs* (from 1 to 250 employees), in the manufacturing industry** (including the agri-food industry) and can last up to 10 days.

The cost to be borne by the company is €300 per day (actual cost: €1,570 per day), thanks to the financial support of the ERDF and the Region in particular. Benefiting from the Breizh Fab program ensures you an adjusted follow-up, at a reduced cost and the provision of a solid network of partners, selected for their expertise, their responsiveness and their seriousness.
