News entreprises

Proximus NXT, a leading player in digital transformation and cybersecurity in Luxembourg, announces a strategic partnership with HarfangLab, a French company specializing in endpoint protection.

This partnership aims to provide Luxembourgish businesses and organizations with a cutting-edge European cybersecurity solution, combining the advanced capabilities of HarfangLab’s Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) with Proximus NXT’s expertise in managed services.

A Partnership for Trusted and High-Performance Cybersecurity 

Amid rising cyber threats and increasing geopolitical tensions, ensuring the resilience of European organizations is a key challenge. In 2023, the average cost of a data breach in Europe reached €4.67 million, while in Luxembourg, cybersecurity is critical for a financial sector representing 25% of GDP, with strict regulations such as NIS2 and DORA. 

With a global shortage of 3.5 million cybersecurity experts, relying on local professionals who understand both technology and sector-specific challenges is crucial for effective protection. HarfangLab, the first EDR solution certified by ANSSI (the French National Cybersecurity Agency), offers advanced technology to anticipate, detect, and neutralize cyberattacks. In addition to excelling in performance (MITRE tests) and security (ANSSI certification), HarfangLab's solutions stand out through strong technological choices. These include an open architecture, six complementary detection engines integrated into a single agent coded in Rust for low resource consumption, full transparency of its models, and the ability to deploy solutions across any infrastructure, Cloud or On-Premises, without compromising functionality. 

Leveraging its deep roots in Luxembourg and expertise in cybersecurity service management, Proximus NXT supports businesses in their digital transformation while ensuring optimal protection against cyber threats. This partnership enables Luxembourgish organizations to access a cybersecurity solution that integrates HarfangLab’s cutting-edge technology with Proximus NXT’s expertise in analysis, monitoring, and response services.

A Solution Tailored to the Luxembourg Market 

Luxembourgish companies, particularly those in strategic sectors such as public administration, financial institutions, and critical industries, will benefit from a solution that combines: 

  • State-of-the-art threat detection and response, powered by artificial intelligence and HarfangLab’s high-performance detection engines.

  • Continuous monitoring and management, provided by Proximus NXT’s Security Operations Center (SOC) experts. 

  • A solution designed for the European market, ensuring proximity of experts and compliance with EU security standards. 

  • A flexible and tailored approach, with deployment options suited to each organization’s needs (on-premises, private cloud, public cloud, or SecNumCloud).

A Shared Vision for the Future of Cybersecurity 

Grégoire Germain, CEO and co-founder of HarfangLab, stated: “We are absolutely delighted about this new partnership with Proximus NXT Luxembourg, a key player in cybersecurity and digital transformation. This collaboration will allow Luxembourgish organizations to benefit from the best European EDR technology combined with the expertise and high-quality managed services of Proximus NXT. In an international context where cybersecurity sovereignty and trust are crucial, this alliance provides an effective and highperformance solution for Luxembourgish organizations.” 

Gérard Hoffmann, CEO of Proximus Luxembourg, added: “This partnership with HarfangLab is fully aligned with our mission to support Luxembourgish organizations in achieving ever more effective cybersecurity tailored to today’s challenges. By combining our managed services expertise with HarfangLab’s cutting-edge technology, we offer a sovereign, flexible, and efficient solution that meets the needs of the most sensitive sectors. In a constantly evolving digital environment, ensuring the security and resilience of IT infrastructures is a top priority for Proximus NXT.” 

This partnership reflects Proximus NXT and HarfangLab’s commitment to strengthening Luxembourg’s cybersecurity ecosystem with innovative, high-performance solutions that address both security and digital sovereignty challenges.
