SCUT brings a unified vision on digital protection - a cybersecurity architecture that eliminates fragmentation between systems

SCUT, Romania’s newest cybersecurity company, has officially launched the concept of the digital cyber shield — a unified approach, co-created with Orange Cyberdefense — that provides a high level of protection, complete visibility, and coordinated assistance in the event of a cyberattack. The event, organized in Bucharest, brought together industry experts, partners of the new company, top management, as well as representatives of the authorities.

In a context where cyberattacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated and can cause significant financial, reputational or operational consequences, the unified approach proposed by SCUT marks a paradigm shift. The SCUT model eliminates the "blind spots" that have emerged between traditional solutions and provides a complete picture of the IT infrastructure, from user devices (phones, laptops, tablets) to the network, servers, on-premises infrastructure and cloud environments. The goal is to eliminate fragmentation and build a coherent architecture, with rapid threat detection, correlation of cyber events and coordinated response, assisted by artificial intelligence.

"In 2025, we can no longer talk about connectivity and digitalization without referring to cybersecurity. SCUT represents the element that closes the business circle of Orange Romania. We are the operator with the fastest fixed and mobile networks, complemented by the most extensive data center infrastructure in the country, along with solid cloud and business integration services. Thus, we facilitate access to the Romanian business environment and the government sector to secure state-of-the-art digital solutions and services. The cybersecurity services offered to customers through SCUT transform us into a truly convergent operator," declared Florin Popa, Orange Business Director and Vice President of SCUT.

The company offers total visibility, protection for every level of the digital ecosystem, advanced threat detection, automatic event correlation and coordinated assistance after cyber incidents, with the help of AI. Created with the support of Orange Romania, as a shareholder, SCUT brings to Romania an integrated protection model capable of preventing attacks before they cause damage. SCUT's expertise is predominantly local, consolidated through its strategic partnership with Orange Cyberdefense, a European leader in the field with over 50,000 customers and annual revenues of 1.6 billion euros. Through this partnership, SCUT brings to Romania international best practices, validated technologies and operational methodologies tested on a European scale, offering local companies a level of protection comparable to that of organizations in Western Europe.

"The launch of SCUT marks a strategic moment for the cybersecurity ecosystem in Romania. Through this project, Orange Cyberdefense brings to the local market our over 25 years of experience in protecting critical infrastructures across Europe. Together with Orange Romania and SCUT's experienced team, we have built a unified security architecture, based on the same principles and technologies that we implement for our customers in Europe. At the same time, SCUT gives us access to valuable information and data from an emerging market and an extremely active cyber area. It is a synergistic relationship, which allows us to expand into a strategic region of Europe, strengthening local and European digital resilience, but also to develop our expertise through the valuable threat intelligence we obtain in Romania,"
