About Corentin

Hello and welcome,

For several years, I have been assisting clients of all backgrounds, from SMEs to CAC40 companies, with their information system security assessment needs. More specifically, my missions focus on the following areas:

- Technical audit, including penetration testing and configuration reviews:
• Needs qualification (e.g., web application security audit to assess its robustness)
• Performing penetration tests and/or configuration reviews
• Identifying vulnerabilities, qualifying associated business risks, and sharing recommendations for remediation
• Formalizing a report summarizing the overall security level assessment and detailing all technical tests performed
• Delivering technical and managerial debriefings

- Incident response:
• Incident qualification (often crisis situations, like ransomware)
• Analyzing attacker traces to determine their actions
• Assisting in the implementation of defense and remediation measures to restore the IS to normal operation

If you would like to know more about my areas of expertise, or if they already match your needs, please do not hesitate to contact me to discuss them!

We develop software for notaries, in a context where data security, confidentiality, and integrity are essential. Corentin assisted us from the design phase of our platform, and then during the penetration tests he conducted with great rigor and professionalism. His support was very comprehensive: concrete recommendations, help with prioritizing corrections, re-testing of applied corrections, and updating the final report. This follow-up allowed us to significantly improve the security of our platform and provide our clients with concrete assurances regarding the handling of identified vulnerabilities. His pedagogical approach and deep understanding of our business context also helped our teams progress in security best practices. We recommend Corentin without reservation.
