SMB Starter
A low-cost technical assessment of your main risks, the right way to start securing your business.
Description
Our Starter pack, designed for SMBs, provides an initial security audit of critical services for companies that are new to cybersecurity and want to build on solid ground. The offer includes a review of your existing security processes, technical checks (penetration tests) on your infrastructure, and support to secure your information system effectively.
What the pack includes
The perfect way to get started, including:
Initial strategic security audit
Review of your architecture and existing processes
Technical assessments
Security checks through penetration tests from the internet and the internal network
Remediation
Support, implementation of fixes and follow-up audit
Why this pack?
No company is safe from a cyberattack today. As an SMB, you handle sensitive data, your operations rely on digital tools, and an interruption could have serious consequences. But strengthening your security does not have to be complicated or expensive.
Our offer lets you build solid foundations: identify your major risks, verify the security of your systems and put in place the mechanisms that keep threats at bay. Designed for SMBs, this pack gives you clear solutions suited to your resources, so you can run your business with peace of mind.
Who is this offer for?
This offer is aimed at small and mid-sized businesses taking their first steps in cybersecurity. It lets you start on solid ground and improve the security of what you already have, while respecting your budget constraints.
- You have never had a security audit
- You have tight budget constraints
- You have no dedicated security expert in-house
- You are seeing more phishing attempts or suspicious activity and want to act before an incident happens
- Your partners require guarantees about the security of your systems

Your assessment can be funded by Bpifrance through its Diag Cybersécurité scheme (French public co-funding). It lets you map your company's exposure to cyber risk at a fraction of the cost. With our expertise, you walk away with a prioritized action plan to better protect your business.

Frequently asked questions
We have never had an audit: is this really for us?
That is exactly what this pack is for. A complete, accessible assessment with no technical prerequisites on your side, and recommendations in plain language, prioritized by what matters to your business.
How much does it cost, and is funding available?
The pack qualifies for the 15% discount reserved for small businesses, SMBs and non-profits, and it is eligible for Bpifrance's Diag Cybersécurité scheme, which funds part of the engagement. We help you put the application together.
How long does it take, and who needs to be involved on our side?
One to two weeks, with minimal involvement: a few interviews and read-only access. Your teams keep working as usual.
What happens after the assessment?
You walk away with a realistic, budgeted and prioritized action plan. You can execute it on your own, with your IT provider, or with our support, with no commitment on what comes next.
