The flagship French-language cybersecurity podcast — weekly roundtable discussions with rotating French security practitioners, running since 2013. The longest-running and most-cited security podcast in the French ecosystem, and the closest French equivalent to Risky Business in working-professional rotation.
Who it's for
French-speaking working security practitioners — RSSI, pentesters, SOC analysts, consultants — who want a weekly hour of substantive technical and industry discussion in their own language. The rotating panel format means most episodes feature recognizable names from the French security scene (ANSSI alumni, large-enterprise CISOs, independent researchers).
Who it's not for
Listeners wanting tightly-produced narrative or breaking-news coverage; episodes are conversational, sometimes meandering, and assume working knowledge of the French regulatory and enterprise context (CNIL, ANSSI, OIV/OSE, LPM). Beginners should start elsewhere.
Key takeaways
- The depth of the rotating panel is the show's defining strength — Schauer's historical perspective, Ulloa's product-and-business framing, and frequent guests like Nicolas Ruff bring decades of real French-market experience.
- The episodes covering French and EU-specific topics (NIS2 transposition, ANSSI guidance, French CERT incidents, sovereign cloud) have no real English-language equivalent and are the unique value-add.
- Back catalog is unusually durable for a conversation podcast; the deep-dives on PKI, supply chain, and crypto hold up years later.
Notes
Pair with Le Comptoir Sécu for the community-and-interview register, with Risky Business for the English-language news complement, and with the ANSSI/CERT-FR bulletins for the official feeds NoLimitSecu often discusses. Independently produced, no significant vendor capture. Required weekly listening for anyone working security in France or French-speaking Europe.
