The best talents and dedicated experts to manage the SOC’s
Constant initiative to make users aware about the ever-changing risks in cyber security and the preventive measures at their level to minimise intrusion to the technology layer.

ESTABLISHING BRAND CREDIBILITY
Brand credibility is a constantly evolving phenomenon. Atos believes that it is important to give a message to its customers about what a brand depicts when they hear about it. And it may not be one single thing. The association of a brand to a certain value can be of two types - one which is constant and long term, and second, which is dynamic and flexible depending on the dynamics of time/technology/demography. In the case of Atos, the first one is something which is associated with the brand always - the trust that Atos brings and maintains all along by delivering the desired solution to its customers. The second one is dynamic, as the brand strives to maintain its leadership position and stay as #1 in the Cyber Security domain.
The other aspect of brand identity is also about how you are known as an employer. In the IT services business, it’s all about people. So, during the pandemic, it was imperative that Atos keeps its customers as well as its people as integrated as possible. Thus, the brand slogan was “We are Atos, We are Together”. Atos is extremely sensitive and careful about the branding aspect and to let its customers and people know what the brand wants to be known for.
