ITES 2021: Manage your users, workstations and applications

In July, we had the opportunity to participate in ITES 2021, the eighth edition of the “Innovation Summit”. This event, organized by CRiP (Club of IT infrastructure and production managers), aims to bring together all players in the IT ecosystem to exchange ideas on French innovation.

ITES thus brings together numerous CIOs and CISOs through various presentation formats such as roundtable discussions, keynotes, and pitches. It was during the latter that Vincent Cardon, President of Tranquil IT, was invited to speak at this edition.

The goal of this pitch, available in text or video format, is to demonstrate the relevance of WAPT in cybersecurity.

Discover WAPT at ITES 2021

When a cybersecurity company tries to sell you something, they often attempt to sell you an additional lock for your front door. My job, however, is to help you discover and close your open windows!

But how do we do that? Tranquil IT is the publisher of a software called WAPT. Originally, it stood for “Apt for Windows”. Those of you familiar with Linux will understand what that means, as well as the power of the product.

For us, WAPT is software that helps system administrators deploy software, configurations, and updates across their fleet of PCs running Linux, Mac, and Windows. To top it off, WAPT has been certified by ANSSI, proving its effectiveness!

Therefore, if you’ve encountered challenges implementing remote work in your organization: WAPT is truly a tool that can help you.

Why does Tranquil IT claim to be DevSecOps?

Each pitch is followed by a question. Here is the transcript of the second part of Vincent Cardon’s intervention:

Philippe Roux: It seems very clear to me. I see “DevSecOps” written under your logo. Why did you choose this baseline?

In IT, especially in cybersecurity, you need buzzwords. That’s the only one you’ll find throughout our entire website and all our documentation! Nevertheless, I attach great importance to this baseline. This baseline is our story! Initially, we were system administrators who software-ized the tool that helped us carry out our infrastructure management.

Then, we were approached by ANSSI, who found that our software had several very interesting features. So we focused the development of our software towards security.

Now, “DevSecOps” is not just a buzzword for us. It’s a company culture. Feet on the ground, security in mind!

And there you have it for this brief presentation of Tranquil IT and WAPT. You can also check out Vincent’s presentation at ITES 2019. Feel free to contact us if you have any remaining questions; we’re available for further discussion.
