European network and data protection for critical infrastructure
Stormshield builds firewalls, encryption, and endpoint security for EU governments, defense, and critical-infrastructure operators. The stack is polyglot—C/C++/Rust for performance-critical firmware, Node.js/React/GraphQL for control planes—reflecting a mature embedded-systems org that also maintains modern web tooling. Active projects span firmware maintenance, multi-platform agents, and SaaS encryption services, while hiring leans engineering-heavy (6 engineers vs. 4 sales) across France, Poland, and Belgium, suggesting product-led scaling in a compliance-heavy market.
Stormshield is a privately held French cybersecurity firm founded in 2014, headquartered in Issy-les-Moulineaux. The company serves government institutions, defense organizations, and enterprises operating critical infrastructure, with a focus on network protection, firewall solutions, data encryption, and terminal security. Their positioning centers on European certification and compliance (ANSSI-aligned), differentiating them in regulated sectors where non-EU providers face adoption friction. The product portfolio spans on-premise and SaaS delivery models, with active development on firmware, multi-platform agents, and orchestration components.
Core firmware uses C, C++, and Rust; control and admin interfaces run Node.js, TypeScript, React, and GraphQL. DevOps includes GitLab, Jenkins, Ansible. Testing uses Cucumber, Playwright, XRay. FreeBSD, Linux, Ubuntu, and Red Hat support deployment.
