PILLIOT CYBERSECURITE ET INFORMATIQUE

What PILLIOT CYBERSECURITE ET INFORMATIQUE does

Pilliot Cybersécurité & Informatique is a French cybersecurity services firm founded in 2020 and headquartered in Aire-sur-la-Lys (Pas-de-Calais). It operates as a subsidiary of Pilliot Assurances, an insurance intermediary specializing in business risks since 1968, and is led by founder Jacques Pilliot. The company delivers a 360° cybersecurity offering that bundles software, managed services, GDPR compliance, and cyber insurance — a structure the firm describes as combining technical and insurance-grade protection. Core products include cybersecurity software (EDR, endpoint protection, Active Directory security, web security, data governance, encryption) resold and configured from partner vendors CrowdStrike, WithSecure, Tenable, Darktrace, Varonis, One Identity, Olfeo, and Seald; managed IT services with real-time 24/7 surveillance and incident response; GDPR (RGPD) compliance advisory and the Adequacy software platform via Infhotep; cyber insurance brokerage through the parent Pilliot Assurances; and cybersecurity diagnostics, audits, and penetration testing. Packaged offerings include Solution Bouclier for enterprises and Solution Citadelle for local authorities (under €2 per inhabitant per year), plus a newer AI Agent Governance and Security advisory line covering LLM architecture audits and AI Act compliance.

The firm targets French enterprises, public-sector local authorities (collectivités territoriales), associations, and organizations deploying AI agents, with a documented geographic focus on the Grand Est region where it is a referenced provider for a regional subsidized diagnostic program (up to 50% / €5,000 HT). The go-to-market is sales-led and inside-sales driven, via telephone, website contact, and Calendly appointments, with referral channels through Pilliot Assurances and the Grand Est Region partnership. The company holds the ExpertCyber label (Cybermalveillance.gouv.fr), ISO 27001, ISO 27005, and AFNOR RGPD certifications, and over 90% of its technology partners are based in France or Europe, supporting a sovereign-cybersecurity positioning. It is a small operation — six total employees — with no disclosed funding, no published revenue, and one named customer (an insurance broker in Pas-de-Calais piloting AI agents).
