History
Intersec was founded in 2004 by Yann Chevalier, Jean-Marc Coïc and Olivier Guillaumin.[7][8] In its initial years, it was mainly known for its SMS software developed for telecom operators.[7][9] The company has since expanded its operations and now develops software applications that process big data from telecommunications operators internationally.[10][11][12]
In May 2022, Intersec deployed the FR-Alert system, which sends emergency notifications to mobile phones in areas affected by disasters or attacks in France.[1][13] The company has since deployed national public warning systems in several other countries, including Germany,[14] Croatia,[15] Slovenia,[16] and Luxembourg.[citation needed]
In 2023, Intersec became a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) to further adoption of early warning systems. Intersec is also a member of the European Emergency Number Association (EENA).[17] The company is a member of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI),[18] contributes to the Linux Foundation's CAMARA project,[19] and has worked with the TM Forum on disaster recovery initiatives.[20] It was also part of the StopCovid contributor ecosystem in France.[21] In 2024, Intersec celebrated its 20th anniversary, with industry press highlighting its role in public safety technology and telecom innovation.[22][23]
Platform
Intersec's location platform combines multiple location technologies to determine device location with an accuracy of a few meters in urban areas.[24] It processes telecommunications metadata to enable applications for disaster resilience, emergency services, LEA investigations, and telecom innovation.[25][26][27][28]
In addition to public warning solutions, Intersec provides geolocation and 5G intelligence services for telecom operators worldwide, including Europe, the Middle East, North America,[29] and Africa.[30] Its platform enables real-time positioning, customer analytics, and regulatory compliance applications.
In 2025, Intersec launched Intersec AI, designed to enhance capabilities and assist users with domain-specific AI agents. [31]
In 2025, the company completed its transition to a subscription-based model[32] and achieved several Red Hat OpenShift certifications.[33] It also includes CAMARA-compliant APIs for secure telecom integration.[34]

Member of the La french Tech[35], Intersec raised 4 million euros in 2011[36], followed by 20 million dollars in 2014 and 10 million dollars in 2016. [37] · [38]
End of 2025, Tikehau Capital and Revaia have agreed to acquire a majority stake in Intersec, alongside the management team, to support the company’s next phase of growth, with closing expected in the first quarter of 2026.[39]
