Background
With an increasing number of startups, how do you spot the innovators with the potential to offer real technological disruption and meet the ever-more demanding requirements of business?
For several years now, Wavestone and a major banking group have come together—at their annual Banking Cybersecurity Innovation Awards—to recognize promising cybersecurity startups.
Wavestone has also created Shake’Up, a unique, tailored accelerator for B2B startups, which helps its clients achieve success in their transformations and young innovators to develop.
One of Shake’Up ambitions is to develop a vision of the startup’s ecosystem, by building radars.

Challenges
Alsid, a French startup accelerated by Shake’Up, since November 2016, saw its solution—which prevents and neutralizes Active Directory intrusion threats—recognized at the 2017 awards.
Wavestone supported Alsid in the development of its product and in its approach to the market.
Results and key success factors
The cross expertise between Wavestone’s cybersecurity teams and the Alsid team has contributed to the development of the startup’ product. At the same time, this collaboration enabled Wavestone to improve its know-how in this domain.
Additionally, Alsid was able to further profit from introductions to Wavestone’s clients.
