Orange Strengthens Sovereignty With New Defense & Security Division

Globe and Mail3 days ago
Orange S.A. ORANY recently launched a new Defense & Security Division under Orange Business. The initiative aligns with Orange's long-term 'Lead the Future' roadmap with an emphasis on sovereign-critical verticals — particularly defense and homeland security in France and across Europe.
As security threats evolve and the complexity of modern defense ecosystems intensifies, Orange is well-positioned to lead the critical transformation, delivering resilient, secure and sovereign digital infrastructure. Defense ministries, national security agencies and critical infrastructure providers demand digital tools that are not only innovative but also highly resilient, compliant and sovereign. With geopolitical tensions and cyber threats on the rise, governments and defense players are looking for trusted technology partners capable of operating at scale with regulatory integrity and mission-critical performance.
The newly formed Defense & Security Division is designed to consolidate Orange's strengths into a single powerhouse. It brings together experts focused on accelerating the digital transformation of defense ministries, homeland security operators and the broader security industry ecosystem.
The multifaceted goals of this specialized unit are to develop and scale resilient connectivity solutions for critical operations, hybridize military and civilian networks to ensure seamless, secure interoperability, host sensitive and classified data in compliance with stringent regulations, provide emergency communications infrastructure and deploy advanced cybersecurity tools and AI solutions to detect, protect and respond to emerging threats.
Technological Backbone of ORANY's Infrastructure
This new division is supported by the technological strength of Orange Business — the Group's enterprise-focused arm. Orange Business is known for delivering top-tier digital infrastructure and services, with the new division fully leveraging this core capability. Key assets include 45,000 km of terrestrial fiber optics, 2,500+ satellite antennas for extended coverage and remote operations, 450,000 km of submarine cables for global connectivity, along with the best service quality 5G network in France and Europe.
This effort is further backed by Orange Cyberdefense, which has a robust footprint in cybersecurity across France and Europe. It brings cutting-edge cyber threat intelligence, detection and response capabilities, including Cyber Threat Intelligence tailored for critical infrastructure and defense clients. In the B2B segment, Orange Cyberdefense maintained steady growth of 8%, largely fueled by strong results in France.
By creating a specialized division focused exclusively on defense and security, Orange is not only expanding its business but also aiding France and Europe to assert technological sovereignty in a world increasingly defined by digital structures.

Norway's Marinvest Energy pitches LNG project in Quebec

Liquefied natural gas could be exported to Europe and beyond from Baie-Comeau, Que., according to a new proposal by a Norwegian company. Known as the Marinvest Energy LNG Export Project, the proposal includes building floating offshore platforms and a liquefaction plant in Baie-Comeau. A pipeline spanning several hundred kilometres would also be required to connect the new facilities to TC Energy Corp.'s TRP-T Canadian Mainline, a major pipeline carrying natural gas from Western Canada to Eastern Canada and into the U.S. The proponent is Marinvest Energy Canada, a subsidiary of Marinvest Energy AS based in Bergen, Norway. Its chief operating officer, Greg Cano, said in a written statement there's a 'strong business case' for the project, which would export LNG globally, particularly to Europe. News of the project was first published on Friday by Montreal newspaper Le Devoir. Basic details, including its cost, how it will be financed, who would design and construct it, and even where proposed facilities would be located, were unavailable. Marinvest Energy AS's website does not disclose information about the project, nor its leadership or partners, nor any previous projects they have executed. 'We are currently at the very early stage of the project,' Mr. Cano wrote. 'For the time being, we are focusing on meeting with various stakeholders and partners, including First Nations communities.' LNG Canada starts exports to Asia and explores pathways to expansion Keith Stewart, senior energy strategist at Greenpeace Canada, said his organization began hearing rumours earlier this year of a pipeline proposed near the north coast of the St. Lawrence River. Greenpeace representatives confirmed those rumours during a recent meeting with Quebec's environment minister. Mr. Stewart added that Greenpeace representatives in Norway told him Marinvest Energy AS is not a major player in that country. 'They wouldn't have the money for a project like this,' he said. 'It looks like what they're trying to do is get government backing for the idea, and then go out and raise the money.' Mr. Stewart said Greenpeace Canada is concerned the federal government might include the project on a list of projects deemed to be of national interest, which could exempt it from traditional requirements such as permits and environmental reviews. It also fears the project could obtain large federal subsidies. Province says it is open to reviving GNL Quebec gas facility project amid U.S. tariff threats Karine Otis, chief executive officer of Baie-Comeau Port Management Corp., said Marinvest contacted the port authority less than two months ago. For the past five years, the port authority has sought to create a hub for energy products and raw materials. For example, a German company known as Hy2gen plans to produce ammonia at an industrial park near Baie-Comeau, with construction set to begin in 2027. 'LNG was not part of this vision until Marinvest came,' Ms. Otis said, and the port is not planning an LNG terminal. But she added that the project could be a good fit in the hub, provided the port can ensure it occupies the least space possible, shares common utilities and other infrastructure with other tenants, and minimizes environmental impacts. 'It's a matter of, is this project feasible financially? Is it viable? Is it needed for our governmental authorities, and is it acceptable? If it is, the port will do what's necessary to accommodate that project.' Another proponent, GNL Quebec, had previously proposed a $9-billion natural gas liquefaction complex in Saguenay, Que., with an annual production capacity of 11 million tonnes of LNG for export to Europe and Asia. That project – which would have included a 780-kilometre pipeline connecting it to TC Energy's Mainline – was blocked by Quebec's government in 2021, and by the federal government the following year. Greenhouse-gas emissions and impacts to beluga whales in the St. Lawrence were identified as concerns.
