What uQuidIT.co does

uQuidIT.co is a French cybersecurity services firm headquartered in Valbonne (Sophia Antipolis), operating since its 2018 incorporation with a team of six professionals. The company delivers consulting, architecture, integration, and managed security services to major accounts, mid-market firms, SMEs, and public administration clients across France, with international deployment capability demonstrated for an NGO spanning 71 countries.

Its core offerings are organized around three pillars: (1) cyber-risk management and compliance consulting grounded in ITIL v3, GDPR, and ISO 27001/27005 frameworks; (2) Zero Trust security solutions built on a Dev/Net/Sec Ops methodology, integrating firewalls (Palo Alto, Fortinet, Cisco, Stormshield), network virtualization (VMware NSX), orchestration (Tufin, HashiCorp Terraform, VMware vRealize), identity (SailPoint), and public cloud targets (AWS, Azure, GCP); and (3) SOC-based managed services with proactive incident detection rates above 90% and 22h/24, 5j/7 coverage. A technical support and maintenance offering wraps the portfolio, with custom software development for client-specific automation and portals.

The business is a bootstrapped, founder-led boutique (Stéphane Perez as legal representative) with €5,000 share capital, no disclosed external funding, and no acquisition history. Revenue derives from quote-based professional services engagements and managed SOC contracts; pricing is not publicly disclosed and customer relationships are anchored by a dedicated Service Delivery Manager model. The company's differentiation rests on vendor neutrality, Zero Trust posture, measurable automation outcomes (e.g., ~70% working-day savings, ~31.4% reduction in unused firewall rules across approximately 30,000-rule estates, flow opening compressed from days/weeks to 10–20 minutes), and a documented commitment to environmental responsibility through 5-year equipment amortization and train-over-plane travel policy.
