SOLEIL is a synchrotron facility near Paris, France, opened since 2006.

29 beamlines are currently open to users, with approximately 6300 hours of beamtime and 2500 users per year.
Accelerators and beamlines equipment are controlled using the Tango distributed Object Oriented framework
The talk will present SOLEIL IT teams operational practices to manage cyber security on its Control Systems. In particular the following items will be addressed during the talk:
