Traditionally described as "professional electronics", the Thales Group's businesses are primarily dedicated to critical information systems. Thales provides its customers with all the key functions in the critical information loop, from detection and processing to transmission and distribution, including command and control systems, decision-support and operational analysis. Today, information dominance is central to both military and civil doctrine and planning.
Because secure information management is vital to their operations, government and private customers alike often share the same needs.
Thales's civil activities (excluding aerospace) are now part of the new Security Solutions & Services division, created in early 2007 following the transfer of Alcatel-Lucent's transport businesses.

Security Solutions & Services division provides solutions for the following markets:
