Our Story
Cyberwings is an independent French firm specializing in strategic information management, cyber governance and digital protection for organizations.
Our trajectory is built on more than twenty years of operational experience. Our teams' first ethical hacking missions date back to 2001, when cybersecurity was still an emerging topic for most organizations.
From 2009 onward, our training activities naturally took shape, driven by profiles from academia and higher education. This educational culture remains central to the way we transfer knowledge, support clients and help their teams progress.
In 2013, we developed digital protection missions. After offensive audits, our clients asked us to help them correct, structure and sustainably manage their security. We trained and recruited ISO 27001 experts, then strengthened our capabilities in governance, compliance, risk analysis and cyber management.
The Cyberwings brand was created in 2016, SAS Cyberwings was incorporated in 2018, and our international development began in 2021. This controlled progression reflects our ability to turn field expertise into a sustainable organization.
Our Organization
Cyberwings is structured around 6 partners involved in business development, governance and mission delivery. This organization ensures strong commitment, operational continuity and decision-making close to the field.
The company operates exclusively on its own funds, with no external capital. This model strengthens our independence, strategic control and ability to build sustainable growth without depending on short-term financial arbitrage.
We are a distributed company. Our remote-first organization, adopted since the firm was founded, allows us to mobilize experienced profiles quickly while maintaining high standards of coordination, confidentiality and quality.
Our teams come from the infosec scene, compliance, higher education and sensitive sectors. This diversity of backgrounds supports a pragmatic, rigorous approach suited to complex environments.
Our Approach
We support organizations with a dual requirement: understand real risks and provide applicable responses. Our work addresses both technical teams and decision-makers, with language adapted to each level of responsibility.
Our expertise covers the technological, organizational, regulatory, normative and strategic dimensions of cybersecurity. We refuse to reduce digital security to a purely technical issue: vulnerabilities also emerge from decisions, processes, dependencies and governance blind spots.
With a strong belief in the Deming Wheel and continuous improvement, our missions follow a PDCA logic: analyze, prioritize, implement, measure and improve. This method helps our clients progress sustainably while respecting business constraints.
Our Commitments
Confidentiality is at the core of our work. We apply strict encryption, compartmentalization and need-to-know information-sharing practices.
Our experts, clients, partners and missions are systematically pseudonymized. This operational discipline allows us to work with sensitive organizations with the expected level of discretion.
We support Open Source and our systems are 100% open-source, hosted in France on controlled infrastructure. This choice strengthens our sovereignty, technical responsibility and ability to audit and control our tools.
Our independence, own-funds model and control over our production environment are strong guarantees for our clients and development partners alike.
