The firm
A human-scale firm — not a service desk.
MINDSEC is an independent firm built to do something simple: technical cybersecurity consulting, with no dilution down the chain, no intermediaries that slow things down, no pitch disconnected from the field.
The firm is intentionally lean: a single point of contact who codes, audits, designs, and delivers. No commercial pyramid, no "junior writing the report while the senior signs the quote." The person on the other side of the table has their hands in the console.
Our conviction: operational security is won in the details. The accuracy of a filtering policy, the consistency of an IAM design, the ability of an automation workflow to survive the next release — those are the things that separate a deployment that holds from one that collapses in eighteen months.
We work alongside existing teams, not in their place. Knowledge transfer and documentation are part of the deliverable. The goal is not to create dependency, but to leave behind better-controlled infrastructure and more autonomous teams.
We are based in France and primarily serve enterprise clients. Hybrid remote / on-site engagement is the norm; cross-border work is welcome.

More than a decade of field experience.
The firm draws on more than a decade of work in enterprise environments — at the intersection of NOC operations, CISO functions, and infrastructure engineering. We specialise in demanding subjects where multiple technologies need to talk to each other: network security, cloud security, observability, automation, and LLM integration in enterprise environments.

- Operational AI — Claude (Anthropic), Bedrock Access Gateway, AgentCore Runtime, Ollama
Approach
A pragmatic, hands-on practice grounded in daily work rather than theory. Preference for sober solutions that actually solve the problem, over technology stacks that create new ones.
Direct communication: no needless jargon, no 60-slide decks when a three-line diagram does the job. Clarity is a deliverable in itself.
