Prevention rather than cure: the golden rule of security applies more than ever to the business world, faced with the unprecedented increase in the number of cyberattacks. "300,000 computer viruses arrive every day on the Net," said Elena Poincet, director of Tehtris, during a working meeting dedicated to cybersecurity organized at the Region.

"We warned the Dax hospital six months ago, but nothing was done, which is a pity" adds Éléna Poincet.
