ALTEN Spain and Lumu partner on automated threat eradication for SecOps. ET By Editorial Team September 17, 2026 ALTEN Spain, a leader in engineering and technology consulting, and Lumu Technologies, creator of the Continuous Compromise Assessment security model, announced a strategic partnership to strengthen cybersecurity capabilities for organizations across Spain. The partnership brings Lumu's SecOps platform into ALTEN's cybersecurity portfolio, giving organizations comprehensive, real-time visibility across their infrastructure, from networks and endpoints to digital identities and cloud environments, while efficiently automating threat detection and incident response. As technology environments become increasingly complex and threats more sophisticated, security teams need to move beyond siloed tools and alerts. Lumu's SecOps platform brings visibility, threat analysis, and automated response together into a unified operational experience. This enables security teams to identify confirmed compromises, prioritize the most critical threats, and accelerate incident response. "Organizations need to evolve toward a more integrated security operations model that provides greater visibility, alert fatigue, and enables faster response to real threats," said Gustavo González, Head of Cybersecurity, Enterprise Services Iberia & Americas at ALTEN. "Adding Lumu's SecOps platform to our value proposition strengthens our SOC capabilities and allows us to offer customers a more efficient and automated approach to managing security while maximizing the technologies they already have in place." Key benefits of the ALTEN and Lumu partnership. * Unified Security Operations: ALTEN's expertise in cybersecurity services and SOC management, combined with Lumu's SecOps platform, provides continuous visibility across networks, endpoints, identities, and cloud environments, enabling teams to identify and respond to threats through a unified operational experience. * Continuous Threat Detection and Prioritization: Lumu's Continuous Compromise Assessment(R) model enables customers' SOC teams to identify confirmed compromises and anomalous behaviors and prioritize the threats that truly require attention. * Automated Response and Mitigation: Lumu enables ALTEN to orchestrate response actions through customers' existing security technologies, accelerating threat containment and mitigation without requiring organizations to replace their current infrastructure. * Greater SOC Team Efficiency: By automating detection, prioritization, and response tasks, customers' SOC analysts can reduce alert fatigue and dedicate more time to higher-value activities such as incident investigation and threat hunting. * Greater Value From Existing Security Investments: Lumu's out-of-the-box integrations complement ALTEN customers' technology ecosystems, connecting existing tools and transforming them into a more coordinated and effective security infrastructure. "Security teams don't need more siloed tools; they need a more efficient way to operate security," said Fernando Cuervo, Senior Vice President of Sales, EMEA at Lumu Technologies. "Lumu's SecOps platform unifies visibility, detection, and automated response to help organizations identify confirmed compromises and act on them with greater speed and precision. Our partnership with ALTEN brings these capabilities directly into its SOC services, helping customers evolve toward more proactive and automated security operations."

From sea to sky: how the ALTEN x Zephir partnership is transforming industrial innovation. Antoine Albeau, 27-time windsurfing world champion and holder of the windsurfing speed record, has teamed up with engineer Marc Amerigo for the Zephir Project: a quest to push the boundaries of high-speed sailing performance without compromising eco-responsibility. To achieve this, they chose ALTEN as their technology partner. Its engineers are leveraging their technical expertise to turn the challenges of competitive sport into concrete solutions, capable of elevating athletic performance to unprecedented levels. But beyond breaking records, these innovations could well reshape industries undergoing major transformation. How is ALTEN adapting technologies born at sea for industrial applications? Innovation in sport: cutting-edge technologies for competitive windsurfing. To turn the demands of sporting performance into tangible solutions, ALTEN is putting its expertise at the service of the Zephir Project. The goal: optimise every detail to push the limits of speed in windsurfing. What are the technological innovations in sport? Digital Simulation and 3D Modelling: ALTEN uses digital mini wind tunnels to virtually test hundreds of configurations. By analysing air and water flows over foils, sails, and boards, ALTEN minimises drag and maximises lift. This approach directly benefits athletes by providing equipment optimised for their performance. Composite Materials and Lightweight Structures: ALTEN draws inspiration from biomimicry to develop anti-friction coatings, reducing water resistance. Athletes thus gain access to faster, more manoeuvrable boards. In parallel, ALTEN also uses hybrid materials (carbon fibre, epoxy resin, etc.) to enhance lightness and durability through an eco-design approach. Data and Embedded Sensors: ALTEN equips boards with high-precision sensors to measure forces, vibrations, and deformations in real time, as well as environmental conditions (wind, swell, temperature). This data then feeds algorithms to refine designs and predict failure points. A major asset for athletes, who can adjust their equipment based on conditions and optimise their performance. Technology transfer: from sea-born innovations to aeronautics. The technologies developed for the Zephir Project are not limited to sport. Their purpose is to address industrial challenges, with aeronautics as one of the first field of application. From foils to aircraft wings. Windsurfing foils and aircraft wings share a common challenge: minimising drag while maximising lift. The digital simulation tools developed by ALTEN for the Zephir Project now make it possible to: * Transpose the hydrodynamic profiles of foils to aircraft wings, refining their shapes to reduce air resistance. * Accelerate development cycles: where designing a wing could take several years, 3D modelling now allows hundreds of variants to be tested in just a few months. Lighter, stronger materials for fuselages. The composite materials and honeycomb structures designed for the sea are finding direct applications in aeronautics. By adapting them to aircraft fuselages, ALTEN enables: * Reduced aircraft weight: a lighter fuselage means lower fuel consumption and increased range. * Enhanced durability: honeycomb structures, inspired by competitive sails, improve resistance to mechanical stress and extend aircraft lifespan. * Lower operating costs: less weight also means less fuel burned and a reduced carbon footprint. Sailing: A catalyst for industrial innovation. The partnership between ALTEN and the Zephir Project demonstrates how sporting challenges can inspire sustainable industrial solutions. By transferring sailing technologies to aeronautics, ALTEN is helping its clients design lighter, more efficient, and more eco-responsible aircraft. But aeronautics is just the beginning. These innovations, born from the pursuit of extreme sporting performance, will soon benefit other sectors, such as automotive, energy, and maritime industries. One thing is certain: with projects like Zephir, the lessons of the sea are now guiding industrial innovation towards new horizons.
