The architecture audit checks the design consistency of an information system with regard to its security objectives. The auditors assess the relevance and compliance of the technological choices from the point of view of the DICT (Availability, Integrity, Confidentiality and Traceability) in relation to the state of the art, the applicable requirements and the ANSSI guides. The SEC-IT audit team identifies potential weaknesses and makes recommendations that are consistent with the company's business needs and constraints.

- Flow partitioning
- Segregation of critical services
- Hardening of technical components (network, system, middleware, applications and endpoints)
