Its software is used by telecom operators, governments, and critical infrastructure providers for applications such as public warning systems, geolocation, and customer analytics.[5][6]
History
Intersec was founded in 2004 by Yann Chevalier, Jean-Marc Coïc and Olivier Guillaumin.[7][8] In its initial years, it was mainly known for its SMS software developed for telecom operators.[7][9] The company has since expanded its operations and now develops software applications that process big data from telecommunications operators internationally.[10][11][12]
In May 2022, Intersec deployed the FR-Alert system, which sends emergency notifications to mobile phones in areas affected by disasters or attacks in France.[1][13] The company has since deployed national public warning systems in several other countries, including Germany,[14] Croatia,[15] Slovenia,[16] and Luxembourg.[17]
In 2023, Intersec became a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) to further adoption of early warning systems. Intersec is also a member of the European Emergency Number Association (EENA).[18] The company is a member of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI),[19] contributes to the Linux Foundation's CAMARA project,[20] and has worked with the TM Forum on disaster recovery initiatives.[21] It was also part of the StopCovid contributor ecosystem in France.[22] In 2024, Intersec celebrated its 20th anniversary, with industry press highlighting its role in public safety technology and telecom innovation.[23][24]
Platform
Intersec's location platform combines multiple location technologies to determine device location with an accuracy of a few meters in urban areas.[25] It processes telecommunications metadata to enable applications for disaster resilience, emergency services, LEA investigations, and telecom innovation.[26][27][28][29][30]
In addition to public warning solutions, Intersec provides geolocation and 5G intelligence services for telecom operators worldwide, including Europe, the Middle East, North America,[31] and Africa.[32] Its platform enables real-time positioning, customer analytics, and regulatory compliance applications.
