Olympic Paris  – SNCF becomes official supporter of Paris 2024

The French Railway Company (SNCF) has become the latest official sponsor of the Olympic Paris 2024. Supporting major sports and mass events is part of the DNA of our group, said SNCF Chairman Jean-Pierre Farandou.

“Railroad workers will put all their energy and experience into serving these Olympic Paris and Paralympic Games to provide an unforgettable experience for French and international travelers.”

Through SNCF Voyageurs, he will be responsible for transporting athletes, officials and other members of the Olympic family to remote locations. They will include Lille, which will host the preliminary basketball and Olympic handball tournament.

The trains will also serve football centers in Lyon, Saint-Étienne, Nice, Bordeaux, Nantes and Marseille, which are also home to sailing. It will also provide a link to the Chateauroux shooting center. The main terminals will welcome visitors with announcements in French, the official Olympic language, as well as in English during the period of the Games.

Reports in the French media suggest that SNCF is likely to offer bonuses to encourage staff to work during the Games. Paris 2024 described the deal as another example of the company’s long-standing ties to sports.

Since 1982, they have been supporting athletes working on the railroad through a special support program. In 2017, SNCF also sponsored the bid for the Olympic Paris. They will also be sponsors of the 2023 Rugby World Cup due to take place in France in September and October this year.

They previously supported the tournament when it was held in France in 2007 and have since supported the 2016 European Championship, the 2018 Ryder Cup and the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup. The Summer Games are due to start on July 26, 2024.

Technology chiefs predict cyberattack increase at Paris 2024

Olympic 2024 CTO Bruno Marie-Rose warned that the war in Ukraine has made a rise in cyberattacks against Olympic networks more likely. He predicted that attacks in Paris 2024 could be eight to ten times stronger than those in Tokyo.

“The war in Ukraine is accompanied by a cyber war, Marie-Rose told Agence France Presse. .”

The Integration Testing Lab (ITL) has opened at the headquarters of Paris 2024 Cyber ​​Partner Atos Technology in Madrid. It is designed to protect all Olympic systems, including a giant database that stores scores, competitor data, and other information.

Currently, 60 employees are starting to test 150 applications critical to the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games. It is expected that about 250,000 hours of testing will be carried out. In terms of intensity and discipline, the upcoming test operations are reminiscent of an elite athlete’s training schedule, insists Marie-Rose, a 1988 Olympic bronze medalist in the 4×100-meter relay.

Paris 2024 has full confidence in Atos’ experience as a leader in such campaigns, not to mention the reliability of its technological capabilities. From July, the tests will include data from the qualifying competitions for the Olympic 2024 and Paralympic Games in Paris.

“At the Tokyo Games, we had 450 million attacks and 4.4 billion threats, or 800 per second, said Christophe Tivet, director of integration at Atos Paris 2024. But this did not affect the Games, in the event of threats, we were able to block all flows before impact, ”

For Paris 2024, networks will handle all accreditations and portals for Games volunteers. They will also apply for voting during meetings of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and for elections to the IOC Athletes’ Commission.

Monitors have already noticed a rise in “phishing” as would-be hackers try to find weaknesses in systems. The most serious case of hacking in recent Games occurred at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang.

The malware was dubbed Olympic Destroyer, and systems were compromised during the broadcast of the opening ceremony. Later it turned out that the perpetrators were employees of the cyber division of the Russian armed forces, who tried to disguise themselves as Chinese and North Korean hackers. The US Department of Justice later filed charges against the police.
