Who we areTOGAF raises awareness
Carto-SI wasn’t built in a day. Its origins lie in a well-known frustration among CIOs: having a clear, usable view of their information systems is a real obstacle course.
Its founder, Malloum Laya, was confronted with this challenge from his earliest experience in enterprise architecture. It was while exploring TOGAF (The Open Group Architecture Framework), a recognized methodology for structuring and governing an IS, that he became aware of the problem:
TOGAF is an essential reference, a goldmine for structuring an IS, but in the real world, it remained too theoretical and too complex. CIOs didn’t have a simple tool to translate this framework into a living, actionable cartography.” It was at this point that the idea for Carto-SI was born: a solution that puts visualization and analysis at the heart of IS management.
All agree that IS mapping is a headache for CIOs
To launch Carto-SI, Malloum spoke to hundreds of CIOs and IT managers. They all confirmed the same thing: mapping attempts all too often fail.
I’ve met so many CIOs frustrated by the lack of visibility over their IS. They spent hours assembling diagrams in Visio, Excel or in-house tools, juggling obsolete diagrams and partial information. Decision-making was slowed down, and every project became a headache. What’s more, all this teamwork could become obsolete as soon as an application evolved. The result was hours of wasted time and blind decision-making.
Existing solutions? Either too heavy and rigid, or too homemade and ephemeral. A paradox when you consider that IS mapping is the cornerstone of any digital transformation.
This situation has a direct cost for companies:
- Considerable time lost in understanding the IS
- Ineffective decision-making due to lack of visibility on impacts
- Increased security and compliance risk
The objective was clear: to offer a solution capable of mapping an IS simply, quickly and intuitively. More than just a simple tool, Carto-SI was to become a true driver of IT governance, enabling teams to make informed decisions based on a global, real-time vision of their ecosystem.
We needed a tool that was both powerful and intuitive, enabling IT Directors to see at a glance the real state of their IS and anticipate the impact of each decision.

Making IS management accessible and efficient
Today, Carto-SI has established itself as a strategic ally for CIOs and their teams. By integrating multi-layer mapping, dependency analysis, sensitive data management and automated impact studies, Carto-SI enables users to regain control of their information systems.
The tool is designed forefficiency and simplicity, as its founder emphasizes:
Our mission is to provide companies with clear, usable visibility of their information systems. We want every CIO to be able, with just a few clicks, to understand the interactions between their applications, anticipate risks and make informed decisions.
With flexible deployment, seamless integration with existing tools and an intuitive interface, Carto-SI is designed to adapt to the needs of every organization. Its ambition? To become the cornerstone of IS management, a true command center for modern IT departments.
Our ambition is not just to map, but to give companies the means to use this mapping to secure their decisions, optimize their costs and better manage their risks.
Our aim: to make mapping easier and more useful on a day-to-day basis. In just a few clicks, every IT department should be able to understand the state of its IS and make informed decisions.
Some features of our Carto-SI tool :
✅ Multi-layered mapping covering business, application and infrastructure aspects, providing a complete, interconnected view of the IS.
✅ Dynamic dependency analysis, enabling real-time visualization of the impact of each component on the whole IS.
✅Automated impact studies to anticipate the consequences of any change before it is implemented.
✅ Advanced management of sensitive data and RGPD compliance, essential for companies subject to stringent regulatory requirements.
✅Real-time synchronization with existing ITSM, cloud and repository tools, to ensure that data is always up to date.
