ArcAbox: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

ArcAbox is a solution from AntemetA for storing, synchronising and sharing business files, designed for IT departments. An agent on the workstation automatically synchronises files across an employee's work devices. Files can be shared internally and externally with read and write permissions per file, and restored with one click. Apps for iOS and Android provide offline access, and a central admin console manages fixed and mobile devices. Integration with Active Directory eases rollout.

AntemetA is a French SAS headquartered in Guyancourt. According to the product page, files are stored in AntemetA's secure cloud, based in France and replicated across the company's data centres; transfers are deduplicated and encrypted. The owner of the company is not stated, and no GDPR statement for this product was found. For a European organisation this means a French supplier with French hosting. Ask about the contractual terms on processing and sub-processors.

Why digital sovereignty matters with ArcAbox

ArcAbox is headquartered in FR and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so ArcAbox scores best on data residency.

ArcAbox is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs ArcAbox together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
