PARIS (Reuters) -Airbus, the world's largest planemaker, is seeking to become the No. 1 investor in Atos' soon-to-be spun-off division Evidian, France's beleaguered IT consulting firm said amid scrutiny on an asset deemed strategic by the government.

If successful, the deal would make Airbus the key industrial partner of Evidian and give it a say over the new entity, which regroups Atos' most coveted assets such as cybersecurity division BDS and supercomputers.
