Why digital sovereignty matters with Attensi

Attensi is headquartered in NO, which falls under the GDPR through the European Economic Area. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

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

Attensi 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 Attensi together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
