Orange Cyberdefense and WEF Unveil New Cybercrime Platform

Orange Cyberdefense partnered with the World Economic Forum’s Cybercrime Atlas initiative to launch an open-source cybercrime platform. It would be designed to map connections across the global cybercrime ecosystem.

The platform called Cosmos aims to improve global coordination between law enforcement agencies, researchers, and private-sector cybersecurity players against increasingly sophisticated and industrialised cybercrime networks. Cosmos is designed to connect intelligence on threat actors, infrastructure, criminal marketplaces, and monetisation channels through a shared data framework and interactive knowledge graph.

According to the French operator, the platform enables users to easily analyse relationships between criminal networks and identify operational dependencies using a universal taxonomy for cybercrime, compiling global intelligence knowledge into a standardised format and supporting coordinated disruption efforts. Orange Cyberdefense explained that it is contributing threat intelligence, open-source research expertise, and the technology underpinning the initiative’s interactive data visualisation platform on a pro bono basis.

“Cybercrime has become an industrial-scale societal threat that demands a collective, open-source response,” said Orange Cyberdefense CEO Hugues Foulon. He added that the initiative reflects the company’s focus on transparency, collaboration, and shared intelligence.
