“VIDEO CONFERENCING HAS BECOME THE ACHILLES HEEL OF BUSINESS”
That is the observation shared by Jean-Pierre Lach and Nawfal Sikal, CEO and CTO of PIMAN Group, in Inspir', the magazine of the Mouvement des Entreprises de France, the French employers' federation.

It all began with a reality: that of our clients. Defence, healthcare, finance, critical industry: their most strategic exchanges (M&A, board deliberations, patent filings in progress, decisions on classified contracts) were taking place on generic tools, without the confidentiality guarantees their sectors demand.
No solution on the market met their requirements. So in 2018, within PIMAN Group, we built our own.
PRIVATE DISCUSS: A TECHNOLOGY BORN IN THE FIELD
Private Discuss is the direct expression of the model PIMAN has championed since it was founded: our consultants support the most critical sectors on their CAPEX projects, so they know the constraints from the inside.
Private Discuss is a sovereign communication platform — video conferencing, instant messaging, webinars — designed for governments and sensitive businesses:
- Native, real-time anti-deepfake detection
- Zero foreign dependency (outside the scope of the Cloud Act)
- On-premise or private cloud deployment, suited to critical environments: operators of vital importance (OIV), defence, healthcare, industry, finance
DIGITAL SOVEREIGNTY: A MATTER OF EXECUTIVE RESPONSIBILITY
Digital sovereignty is no longer just a matter for the IT department. Today, it directly engages the responsibility of senior executives.
At a time when cyberattacks are targeting corporate communications and European regulations (NIS2, DORA) are imposing growing requirements on the control of sensitive data flows, using generic video conferencing tools for strategic matters is an operational and legal risk that critical organisations can no longer ignore.
